There are many tracks that 'go into' lakes Not worried by them.

Here is an example
Way: 285828626 - a track source Bing

If you compare it to the LPI Base map zoomed in to a scale of 100m in 
JOSM you will
find that path heading north about halfway along the track.
Around -35.75557/148.16232


I thing the H&H is the path shown on LPI ... not the present OSM shown 
route.
If LPI is correct and you followed OSM .. there might be a fair bit of 
true bushwalking.

To further confuse things .. Strava shows paths/tracks used in that area 
... but not the LPI path nor the OSM H&H trail.

I am inclined to;
map the LPI data .. as the H&H where I think it is appropriate.
map the strava stuff ... as a track.
remove the present OSM H&H where it looks to be replaced by either the 
OSM or strava data.

But I am still thinking about it, I don't like removing stuff!
