had a good day out in toolangi state forest today with some friends and a few other blokes.. 6-7 patrols gu's and gq's diesels and petrols to mix it up..
was my first time out on the tracks with this particular vehicle and of course in true toolangi style the day wasn't without its hick ups.. first track of the day i got slightly stuck and slid into a tree damaging my rear passenger side quarter. we had multiple tyres popping of rims on some of the guys cars in less than perfect places.. and a blown diff.. all in all a great day, the patrol performed perfectly on its first day on the job. plenty of room for improvement though so off to the drawing board we go.. sliders and rear bar and quarter chop coming right up!!

I thought staircase was closed.

Did you go on aeroplane track by chance or was that closed off?

Looks like a great day was had. Up our way if it gets that wet we sit on the verandah and wait for it to dry up - black soil to china otherwise
