(Proceed under the Putty Rd bridge. * Turn right just before bridge for access to the Putty Rd. [Access rd not marked on this map] * There used to be a service station and public camping area several hundred metres along the Putty Rd, on the other side of the river. These are both closed at present [Jan '07]. * Large shady parking area area under bridge, but pretty grotty.
(* Park with picnic tables on left. * Composting toilets with very small water tank and small hand-basins on right. Also undercover picnic table * This section of the road is called Lower Colo Rd, not Upper Colo Rd as marked on this map. * Reasonable quality unsealed road, narrow in places).
