Japanese Tunnel and Trenches SE of Mount High West [????- ]

Submitted by MikeB on

A fairly large complex with 2 exits, several turns and chambers. It's very easy to reach from the main path leading up to Mount High West. Turn left right before the first major stairs begin to ascend up the mountain. You will walk West and come across it to the right of the path after a very short walk on the well trodden ribbon trail. There's also a trench system S of the Tunnel. 

Japanese Tunnel and Trenches SE of Mansfield Road [????- ]

Submitted by MikeB on

A major position with long trenches and a at least 2 Tunnel entrances. One big entrance collapsed in the hillside and one smaller vertical entrance on the level of the trenches.

Tunnel rats are welcome to explore.

There's also a long waterpipe skirting around the slope from West to East. Don't go further downhill as the tunnels and trenches are just 10 to 15m above it.   

Hilltop Trenches and small Tunnel Mount Cameron area [????- ]

Submitted by MikeB on

Stumbled across this completely overgrown hilltop position while following the ribbon trail traversing the N ridge of Mount Cameron.

There's a very small dug out tunnel with 2 entrances and a trench leading to a fortified position some meters away. Was late in the day so didn't explore much more. One for the Military buff's to check out. It's very easy to reach following the ribbon trail from the power mast going uphill.
