What every map, especially a splendid example such as that, needs is a field test.  Thus I have taken the liberty of printing a couple of copies - one greyscale, one in Glorious Technicolour (for the benefit or Mr Gates, note correct spellings  - to inform the Wednesday Walk tomorrow.

Excellent, Julian.  I think I can transmit that as a reasonably sized file.  I have made the following minor additions

 

(1)    There is now no access down or from the old Jerrabomberra Ave

(2)    To access the southern section of CB proper it is possible to park on Mugga Lane, step through the gate and walk down the vehicle track leaving the quarry fence on your right (purple arrow)

(3)    The areas I have marked 'P' are private leases where access is not available

(4)    The entrance to area 'B' is rather narrower than first shown.  This may be accessed and is known as the 'Barron Woodland'

Mark,

I've made up a map that shows as best as I know it the twin reserves of Callum Brae and Jerra Grasslands.  It's too big for chatline restrictions so you'll find it here...

It's hard to get the info out of ACT Gov't about these boundaries, the squiggly yellow line represents my understanding of the boundaries - the actual boundary is along the orange lines inside my squiggle.  At least it shows the extent and connection between Callum Brae and Jerra Grasslands.  I'm not certain of the approved name of the "toe" at the bottom, or where the actual boundary goes past the property.  As Ian says the main entrance to Callum Brae is at the top of the map on Narrabundah Lane.  You can also enter Jerra Grasslands by parking somewhat awkwardly on the Monaro Highway and finding suitable fence crossing.

Hope this helps,
Julian

G'day Geoffrey and all,
 
Being a "north-side" resident and one who rarely ventures south of Lake Burley Griffin, I thought it was about time I discovered where Callum Brae is actually located in case I should get the urge to travel to such far-flung local places. I know there are also others who are not sure where CB is so could you (or others on the chat-line) please send a reply to the chat-line with the relevant directions.
 
Many thanks,
 
Mark
