Talk:Chippers Leap

I disagree
I can remember frequent trips up to mundaring during the 70's and 80's have always known the chippers leap story but I only saw the Painted sign PTO. The Rock this was on was removed as part of the roads upgrade. Gnangarra 06:55, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

Hey!
There's no point to disagree, just edit! I shifted into darlington in 1962, and it was there for quite a long time, so when you say 70's - maybe you need to put a date to it, that is a space of 10 years! The rock was not removed as part of any upgrade - its still to the left! Anyways, whatcha think - do you have anything that you can add? User:SatuSuro 11:19, 22 January 2006 (UTC)
 * The reason for not editing is i cant offer better dates and they are only the recollections from my childhood. Closest date fit I could offer would be when Cannington dog track was opened as it was just before and during that time my parents where racing and breeding the dish lickers.  They brought the feed from a place on Great Eastern Hwy just past the Mahogney Inn. The story as told is what I knew of the place. Maybe  instead of a stand alone article it could be part of the article for Greenmount Gnangarra 12:51, 22 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks - Good idea! - there is the potential for the greenmount article to grow through . There are some interesting convict links in the very immediate area as well, Will try to find some other stuff first though. User:SatuSuro 13:43, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

other places of interest.
If you are looking around for further places of interest you might want to have a look in the bush directly below bilgomen pool, along darlington road. There are some convict ruins there. I grew up about 1.5km south of chippers leap and only ever saw the PTO sign, but that only dates back to 1970.
