Mount Warning, but 'Bob's your uncle'
Description
Lismore is one of the largest regional centres in northern N.S.W. and is a locus for the boomer era counter-culture, much like Ballina, Byron Bay and Nimbin. Mount Warning is a volcanic plug, with about half the crater walls remaining and forming a very distinctive landmark. It last erupted about 23 million years back so 'Bob's your uncle' as we say down uinder. **
