Well did atrip to Walhalla and Macalister Gorge for Easter 2012 from Fri-Tues
Started looking for places to camp at O'tooles and onwards passed Goonans hut and landed at Store point. The whole area was loaded full of people with most struggling to find a good camp site.
We did a few day trips to white star mine, mt selma, mt useful, army tk to deep creek tk's etc.
Monday we decided to shift camp to Macalister Gorge and where fortunate enough to get the well built hut by "WHERETHEFU#KAREWE4X4" and enjoyed it's facilities and surroundings.
