Features and location
Glenugie peak is composed mainly of Cenozoic -aged dolerite [ 3] Grafton Formation . The Grafton Formation is a series of sedimentary rocks, laid down between the late Jurassic and early Cretaceous periods.
Glenugie Peak is noted by Matthew Norman for its dry rainforest in a gully which includes a number of rare species of trees, as well as the Yellow Box , which is more often associated with areas west of the Great Dividing Range .[ 4] [ 3]
Stone quarried from the slopes of Glenugie peak was used as ballast for the North Coast railway line and remnants of the tramway used to transport the rock can still be seen today.[ 5]
