Chapman Pde Faulconbridge 22 Aug 2021

Intent was to walk in the evening in search of frog calls. Stopped at main clearing late afternoon and there were 5 or so cars and bike and motor bike riders. walked to the left (Linden direction) along short trail. Major 4wd and bike damage to trail including a lot of dried mud/dust on verge plants in parts. litter and additional clearing, very eroded steep parts. Birdsong stopped when very loud motor bike was being ridden on Chapman. No frog calls or ovious water other than in track ruts. When motor bike had departed we walked along Chapman. No frog sound or much bird sound. major road impact from 4WDs. v deep ruts. returned just after dusk. All areas had been fire impacted.
