We couldn't have had a much better time on our five day trip through the Vic High Country over the summer. Plenty of beautiful riverside campsites on the Howqua, Jamieson and Big River along with some 4wding and hiking, absolute bliss.

I've finally got around to putting this together so here is my video covering the trip and an itinerary below:

Please do keep a safety eye on weather Brother, Silvermine Tracks featured have a funky different dirt, graded or ungraded when it gets wet/slick 100% needs muddies and front patrol lockers at the least, leave the others back home unfortunately 🥲
