3M3D 2026 Thursday 9th July 2026 - Kuranda, Dinden State Forest, Cairns,

Date for 3M3D (at this stage) is 9-11 July 2026. We have to move it to Thursday - Saturday due to another major event in Cairns on Sunday.

Thanks, Sharon and Allan for helping with clearing Vivier's Track today. Marsha, Tabitha and Heidi also helped out during the event to collect flagging tape. Still need to do a section in Barren Gorge. Hopefully that can be done next Sunday.

A huge thank you to all our wonderful volunteers, who, without their support this event would not have been possible.
