    Hey Cuppa,

    As Callen says, there are some great tracks up there if you want to venture out and about. Unfortunately my map is at work and not at home, but there is a ripper ridgeline track at the north end, which travels roughly north-south - not hard or anything, but like the high country only a little smaller in height ... great views to the countryside on both sides.

    There are some harder tracks down the south end, and a couple up north, and some superb mining relics and tunnels.... mining stuff is north of most of the camping areas.

    We took an unknown run down one track down to the mining areas, and it was awesome .... we had a tag along from our campsite, who we asked to join us as he had a fairly capable truck but was on his own, but he bailed as I think it got too intense for him. We found an easy way in and out afterwards .... I think you would really enjoy that area.

    Yeah, I went with my now-defunct-club a couple of years ago. Unfortunately I took a camper trailer, so the tracks I could do were limited. I am keen to go again when the fire danger has subsided.
    My advice is: not to follow my advice.

    Thanks, but those links don't work unless you're part of the "Out and about 4x4" group on Facebook. So if you can't see them, join this group then try the links.

    Nothing better than waking up at camp to the sound of a pair of Magpies warbling away.

    Unlike the Murray when the Kookaburras wake the Cockatoo's and Galahs lol
    then its one up all up
