Victorian meet up Jan 25th-28th 2013 Walhalla

[Drewboyaus]

Told my Erica this trip might be a little more full on as far as tracks go and she said she will let me know if she is coming or not???? funny bugger she is!!!

Got another tent today as I either have a swag or a bloody big tent and I wanted something in between.

'Not any more difficult than the "hill of death" I see you did on New Years Day.
If you got up there, you shouldn't have too many dramas with most of the Tracks around Walhalla.....unless its wet!

I've never understood the allure of a swag, always putting a tarp over them in crappy weather. I have one of those speedy tents and reckon they're the business for shorter stays.....I used one for a three day trip along the Butcher Country track in the snow a couple of years ago....it was cold-ish but dry.
I then went out and bought a proper 4 season tent for those expeditions...particularly when the eldest daughter wanted to start coming along.

I love my swag, set up and pack up in about a minute... When it's raining throw it in the back of the car

I use my swag for quick overnighters when shooting!!!

I need to get out again already... going stir crazy!!!!

[Drewboyaus]

Nice looking Kelpie is Rosco....I've got one of them too. Mines a Blue one from up Maryborough way.
I've not taken mine out yet (he's 11 months). Where does Roscoe sleep when you're camping?

Not dissing the swag, just never appealed to me.

Rossco is only 12 weeks old so I've only taken him out once. He slept inside one of the huts with us. Otherwise I would tie him to the back of the car and put his bed and water under the car to keep him cool/dry.
Are you gonna bring your pup along then? BA will no doubt bring his too.

[Bloodyaussie]

Are we allowed to bring them to this location??

I will not bring them also if Mags wants me to keep them home as early warning device for intruders or if it is a National Park...

Yes mate dogs are allowed, it's state forest not national park

[Drewboyaus]

I haven't decided yet.
The tricky thing I'm working with is because I've crate trained him that's where he sleeps at our place, in his crate in the lounge room.
To take him camping I need to introduce a new bedding arrangement for him (crate wont fit under the truck) before I go so he's settled and I'm not sure if I have the patience for that at the mo....

Wish I could crate train my kids......

Ok if the wife lets me bring them then they will be there.. as it looks like a smaller meet I will not have to worry as much.

I hope the temp comes down a bit for this trip??

[Winnie]

I hope so too. It will most likely be a total fire ban which means no fire obviously. Can still use gas stoves etc as long as you have 10L of water at the ready
