The yellow-triangle-marked tracking tunnel line heads east from TT18 dropping to flats and hitting the east bank of Crombie Stream. The marked route follows the east side of the stream to the base of a small hill (pt188) where it forks. Yellow trianges & blue tape take you briefly west crossing the stream via a small horizontal live tree (the pink-rectange-marked tunnel line continues briefly north up the east bank before ending part-way up pt188). Crombie Biv is in a small clearing 20m from the stream on the west bank and is on the track.

From Crombie Biv follow the marked tracking-tunnel line south, crossing Crombie Stream by means of a small horizontal live tree and rope. The marked route follows the eastern bank of Crombie Stream south for about 1.5km before leaving it to continue east to the northernmost base of pt238. The spur which gives access to pt238 is hit at tracking-tunnel 18, indicated by TT18 on a pink triangle.
