    Unfortunately it always seems to be like that.

    I am serious about the location change as I have had concerns from people about 1: the camp area suitable for so many cars 2: the terrain not being suited to novices as much and a few other things??

    I know I am a pain in the arse?? How do you do a poll on the matter??

    BA, I'm not that fussed where we go and it's a fair concern about the size of the campsite....roughly how many would you expect?
    From the tracks point of view, it would be interesting to get a report form someone on some of the general track conditions as I reckon there are a few dodgy ones for novices but I'm no Jedi Master when it comes to driving the tracks and I ended up doing DK1, DK4 (chicken track for "the hill") and Burgoines all on my first outing. With some good advice from my crew we did it easily......but it was dry.
    Like I said though, I don't mind where we go as I really enjoy the camping and relaxing as much as the driving....and I'm new around here anyway.

    O tooles would piss it in could fit twice as many as last meet up.As for the tracks Donnellys crk trk is flat with a few little shallow water crossings ive driven it in middle of winter in 2wd with no problem,also driven it at 3 o'clock in the morning it is very easy,flats trk while kind of steep is very easliy done as it's not rutted just steep in spots.The only one which may be an issue for the novice is Army trk as it has some small ruts on a couple of down hill sections.Willowby spur will be an issue if it's wet if it's dry then no drama.White star and morning star are the same as flats but not as steep but not rutted out.Trig trk is steep with a couple of tight switch backs,pheasnts trk if dry is easliy done just steep in two sections.Now when i say steep,for those that came on the second drive at murrindini they not as rocky as the hill we did and not quite as steep or long.

    Chester I am with you and would really like to do Walhalla but I have no first hand knowledge of the area for 4wding and I am getting people worried about it being too tough for there shiny rigs???

    Andy wants to do it also... do I stay the course and trust in you and Roofy and Chris's experience in the area to make this all happen???

    I think this is what we will do... once you guys give me the spots that will work for us to camp I will set it all in motion.. I will still lead the novices out for some fun!!!!!!

    Lets make this happen and make it fun!!!!!!!!
