    Calaedonia river/Butcher country Feb 9-12

    I am heading into the Caledonia River Valley then out via Butcher Country on the dates above. Its a laid back trip, not a piss-fest, so if you are in the area or want to join us please let me know. Might even go in on the night of the 8th to make the drive more interesting. I am sure one night will include PIZZA's!

    It'd be a great trip. Good tracks through there. I'd love to go but I have to buy a house. Stupid things I have to waste my weekends on.....

    No problem, see you 'out there' another time. I reckon there will be next to no traffic at all based on the last time we went up mid week, and the campsites are pretty clean as well, but wood is scarce, especially in the Caledonia River area.

    Have fun. That is one of the nicest areas of Vic in there ..... plenty of wood if you stop a kilometre or two from the camping areas - we usually pick some up on the way.

    Yeah, just nowhere to put it! We did grab a bit before heading down the switchbacks, but had an empty hilux with us, so that worked.

    Unfortunately Feb is out for me trips this year, I was planning on doing a trip there later in the year though hopefully

    If its a gaztted TFB, then no fires for sure. If not, its usually contained or smallish fires anyway.
