High Country, Howqua River Weekend

[Hodge]

Just arrived home from a marvelous weekend on the Howqua with a few work mates. We got blessed with the best weather one could ask for... Drove up there friday, setup camp and enjoyed. Now much off-roading apart from few river crossing to get there. Unfortunately it had to come to an end and now we're back to reality!

Yeah mate it was absolutely marvelous. Cold at night then warmed nicely midday. Had a quick swim, in the snow-melt howqua, woke me up nicely.

It's awesome mate. Scenery, fresh air, unreal views and tracks that make you question your man hood.
