We found the right track in ans with the gate open we drove round and up Mount Benson to the base of the look out tower. We were amazed to find a car parked up there but there was nobody in it so we parked up and got out to take the necessary pictures. I then heard someone up the tower questioning what I was doing, I told them I was just taking some pictures only to be told that we should not be up here as there was a total ban due to the high temperature. I appologised and questioned how I was to know as the gate at the bottom was open, he suggested that I finish taking my pictures and leave, so we did.
