Hi Gang, just wondering if anyones been up Big Red in the last 10 years.

I was there back in 1985 and back again in 1989.

I remember Big Red was a nightmare to get up in 85, it had a steep ridge about 4 metres high right at the top which everyone got stuck on. Only the good drivers willing to push their 4WD's made it over that last bit and sometimes got hooked at the top stuck on the chasis.

Now, when i came back in 1989 it was dark we had a convey of about 6 cars and we just wanted to find the next town to camp for the night. By accident we went over Big Red, not realising it was the hill. Later that night we got the maps out and we did go over it.

We agreed that over the years that last peak of the hill that no one could get over in 85 must have worn down or the wind over the years could've knocked the top off the hill maybe?

Just curious to see if anyone has been up Big Red in the last 10 years?

How'd you go?

Was that crazy lip at the end still hard to get over or was it easy?

Thanks gang!
