Im almost tempted to go for a blast up to around Matlock on Sunday with this weather thats just hit. But my Patrol it sitting nice and clean after a 4 hour scrub from the snow trip. I really cfb'ed cleaning it again so soon. I wonder if the RWD Territory will handle it. Might be a bit sketchy.
there’s snow down to 490mts around here mate - about 2weeks to late
Very 2WD sketchy for sure Mark mate!
Took a solo Sunday arvo locked 4x4 diff ute trip over for a Woods Point Parma feed there two cold weather snap years ago. Blizzard nearly caught me up top and honestly struggled to keep the beast on road back home!

Stuck behind these dudes for nearly an hour to get themselves out. . After that most people didn't continue so wasn't too much riff raff. .

Went up Mt Margaret Road just out of Buxton then Blue Range Road out through Rubicon then home through Toolangi. Toolangi was quite as till I hit Mt Monda Rd then every man and his dog lol. .

Looks great Rossco. I have had to endure another day of 29 degC and clear blue skies, working under a pollution plume - heavenly!
Myself and Mat went up Mt Margret track also this afternoon. It was absolute mayhem on the way up. Cars everywhere. I think because last night they copped 90cm of snow at lake mountain so the road was closed and everyone was looking for an alternative. We stopped at the Blue Range rd turn off, considered going further but it was 4pm by this time. Too risky to go further. Might even sneak up again in a week or two me thinks.

We had an AWD Ford Everest follow me up too. Wheel spin the entire way. He finally gave up and had to reverse all the way back.

The Everest is a proper 4WD, it's a Ranger wagon basically. The highway tyres it was delivered with definitely don't help though!Quote:

Yeah was somewhat of a circus when I went up, passed a dude in a Honda Civic putting chains on but think he turned around. Got to the top and winched a Hilux out that got stuck turning around. . . GQ went pretty well although kinda struggled in virgin snow off the edge so put the lockers in and all good, got to the bottom of the mountain and unlocked hubs and only one was in lol haha. .
Love that last pic Markie should put it in the Dark & Stormy thread.

Yeah I know but more so the car was stock as a rock. Highway tires in snow that was 2ft deep in parts. Would have had no recovery gear too I bet, but no he was determined but failed. He was really struggling. I had to pull off the track and into fresh snow to make way for a few cars up ahead and I got caught when I stopped. Luckily I thought to bring a shovel, lowered the tire pressures and dug my way out and was all good.Quote:

Here is my world, and has been for at least a month. RH typically 5 - 8% every day
Due to rain I havnt turned a wheel for over 2 weeks - & out of the last 6 weeks I’ve worked a total of 2 weeks . To say I’m fukn over it would be a massive understatement.
Apparently summer is meant to be coming [emoji295] [emoji295] [emoji295]Quote:
