Back in my 20's a few good mates and I used to truck our 'Toy'odas' up to meet our busy holiday schedules too. Plenty of empty spaces on rigs/trains can be found blokes ;-)

If it turned out this big Dazz mcadams wouldn't handle it. Including kids we could be looking at 50-70 people.

AB, You could still have some in tents/swags and leave the room accom to the women/kids. Its been 20 yrs since I have been to McAdams Gap, but this way you knock off a couple of variables in one hit.

1) comfy family friendly area with under cover communal area and McAdams can still cater and get a bigger clip,

2) the guys on the forum who do like or want to experience the snow camping experience without heat and ball freezing conditions can do so with a prop on the property and still have access to showers and toilets

3) Its closer to our side of Melbourne for our western friends

4( its exclusively yours for the entire time so no unexpected visitors blowing in or competition for the area

5) if its in the right time of the year you are right up there above the snowline and don't have to drive 1 hr to get to it and 8 hrs to return, unless you elect to go the scenic route like this year!!! Track closure is a concern however if we cracked it like the tracks on my weekend, there was more than enough opportunity to play around simply on the roads that are open. Unsure where this sits with location to Mt Skene and maybe some work needs to be done, as discussed, around access??

Just my thoughts but I would not disount the venue - maybe a call or contact to the owners of McAdams to pose this scenario would be in order.

Yeah I think Darren is going to give them a buzz and find out some more info of potential numbers so we'll see what happens.

Camping in 600mm of snow would not be impressive for the wives though...lol

If they can retreat to a cabin though they'll be right! Would be pretty cool to camp at McAdams though.

Absolutely, would be great!

If Darren comes back with numbers we might have to do a lock in poll early maybe...

Was sure last Licola Village trip someone mentioned McAdam's was along the lines of $100 per person per night which included all meals. Drinks at bar prices too I thought was mentioned which we should consider could add up without BYO licence maybe we should check on too. I don't drink so cheap for me :-)
