Well this doesn't happen very often but, I've got absolutely nothing on this Sunday. Going to be flat out all week finishing off with a wedding on Saturday night. Sunday is a free day so who's up for a day out in the bush don't really care where just want to get out.

Either, wouldn't mind going to cobaw never been there, or might even go up kinglake way.
If there is no takers, can anyone recommend a good 1/2 day one vehicle return trip.

What time were you thinking mate? And for how long? I will be home from night shift around 830ish sunday morning and then have to be home by 1630 that arvo to get ready for the next night. Might be cutting it a bit fine and might be buggered tired. Never been to cobaw myself either. I can't commit 100% due to unforeseen nightshift workload but I'd be keen to check it out so make sure you post up details once you nut it out. Even if I come up for a couple of hours or so.

I'm going to try to be there around 10 ish and if all goes well start making my way out around 2-3.

No pressure mate. I'm sure that this will come up again. I know only too well how nightshift can screw you around.

See how you I'll PM you my number.

That'd work pretty well if I have a quiet enough night. Good thing is I can sleep on night shift if it's all quiet.

I've got your number now so will give you a buzz Sunday morning if I'm going to be able to make it or not.

Was wet but not too bad just constant. It was running down numerous ruts and made it all a bit slippery in some places.

My only damage.

http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forums/images/imported/2016/08/268.jpg

Rain was on and off most of the day not heavy but enough to get the tracks slippery and of course it was probably at its heaviest when the winch came out.

Only twice once for each of us on different tracks. I needed a lokka and Sooty muddies.

Overall a good day out. Some good tracks and no massive bog holes.

Got one video which I'll put up soon.
Sooty driving up with ease where I needed to winch.

Will definitely be going back....

Hopefully be able to knock it back out if I pull the panel off. Happened at that first epic track we avoided as I back out of it.

That would have been at the start, a definite track where full body armour is required.

I know that things like the rim is expected, but they're only a month or two old.
