Wish we weren't in qld then. Would have been a perfect chance to see the VHC with you folks.

Looking at traveling from echuca via Mansfield to licola.
Just wondering what the road is like from Jamieson to licola..
I shall start the list. Please copy and add your name if you are coming. The proposed camp location is at Collins Flat about 20 minutes North of Dargo on the Upper Dargo Rd. It is a nice spot on the river with a couple of drop dunnies (they are a bit old but serviceable). It is normally far enough away from Dargo that there shouldn't be too many people.
I expect we will meet there (with some travelling in convoy) on Friday. I will try to get there as early as possible to ensure we get a good spot.

Shame though as Mansfield caravan park looked awesome.
What are the chances of the Alpine road being shut in 2 weeks??

Kallen the trip I did last time was from home to Dargo via licola but it took 3 days. Billy Goats is in the licola direction from Dargo but is still 2 hours from licola. We drove from otooles through licola to Talbotville in a day and that was a full day driving.

I am leaving all the planning between Drew and Winnie as I have no idea about this part of the world and only follow the leader when we do trips down that way.
Now I have my day trip out the way I am getting excited ......... wahoo!!!
I'm 100% there, Amy is about 50/50 and my mate and his missus will be there too.

The wife and I are seeing if we can organize to come.
Bloody oath. Be good to finally put some names to mugs..
Fingers crossed the women get along coz it's one thing wifey is anxious about.
So what's the Great Alpine rd like.
Maps says unsealed major rd.. It's not on google maps.. Don't mind chook tracks, along as it's safe to travel solo..
I'm Struggling but Keen as Curry! If i go it will be early. As early as Wednesday even. Still negotiating with Naomi but need her to cover her shifts at work.
Been wondering about you mate........... I hope you can make it...Quote:

Great Alpine rd is sealed all the way. Most dangerous thing is sambar deer they are everywhere up there.Quote:

According to google the quickest way is into Melbourne and out through Gippsland......WTF?

Hey folks,
i might see if i can get along to this trip.
Are any of you heading into the high country earlier? ? ?
I'd like to head in as early as Tuesday and do some exploring.
Yea as I said google doesn't have either north road to dargo, just the south one.
And my latest map book says both roads are major roads, nut not sealed.
Father in-law confirmed this, but was many moons ago when he was there..
That would be good mate. I'll be arriving Thursday night.Quote:

WOOT looks like we will be there. Grandma is looking after the lil one for a few days. I'm just not so sure how she would handle the big days in the car at this stage. Very soon though.
I'll prolly think about heading in thurs night. We will be coming in from Wodonga side so dont really wanna tackle that friday morning then have a full day driving also.
We will have to boot off first thing sunday morning though to pickup lil one and get home.
Cool stuff matty. So which way will you be coming?
We are not going to make it, wife has a deadline that needs to be met on the 28th.
I hope all goes well.
We will be coming down from Beachworth looks like a nice drive

I dont have to be at work all week, so if anyone is interested in exploring the highcountry from MONDAY to Thursday as well, please let me know!? i'd be keen.
I'd love to say yes, but it does depend on how the kids are.
We also have no time restrictions but having been already out and about for 7 days before Anzac day its UN explored territory for us with kids..
If there good I'm sure wife will be keen for a couple more days..
Wednesday would be the latest thou.
@Bloodyaussie, think you need to edit first post with finer details..
Just found out our QLD trip might be canned due to cyclone and few other issues. So... That means there is a chance I might be able to tag along.
That means I have to get my dual battery system and fridge organized asap!
Watch this space.
Is there a deadline you need to know the numbers BA ???
Not at all Eric.... last minute if you like mate.... Great if you can make it as Mudski never wants to turn up !!!!!!
I'm ready
