Was great weather and was great fun. Cold starts, but beautiful days. Steep tracks, lots of river crossings and great company..


Bit cool at night

Was absolutely beautiful. We all came away with some damage, altho nothing major.. katrol's got no brake lights and a floppy driving light.. Roofy's rig didnt want it's rear tail light any more. And Bel's tail light tried to escape, but I caught it in time.. Even the cruiser went out in sympathy and driving lights stopped working on the way home..
Some new bush pin striping to polish out tomorrow..
That area is really rich in history from gold mining times, and Roofy is a wealth of information.
Really was a fantastic week end..

Well done guys looks like a beautiful place. Good to see Katrol out again.

looks like a lovely spot, thanks for the report, photos and video.

Now we've seen a couple of dirty picks of Katrol, er, picks of Katrol dirty, looks like the start of a trend!

Be interesting to see if the electricals come back to life after they dry out from the creek crossings. A good creek crossing gets Silver's reversing camera working again (mongrel thing it is :-) )

Thanks for all the pics and vids Kat, belzi and roofy.
Looks like a great place to live so close to and be able to do weekenders there.
The bush pin stripes are a small price to pay forthe experience.
Really great views from up high.
A great report of a fun looking weekend by the look of it!
