    Holland Track

    well i am heading off tomorrow with the western patrol club for a 5 day trip on the Holland Track, we are doing Hyden to Coolgardie, its been raining here for about 3 days so it will be pretty wet which is not what i was hoping for as its harder to clean caked on clay than dust lol, i'm looking forward to getting away for a few days as this will be my first break for over 12 mths. I coulnt wait till the meetup in the middle so grabbed this oportunty, will post up pics when i get back and if i can workout my new gopro maybe a couple of videos too. should have a couple of these as we sit by the fire as it will be cold still out there.

    Should be fun. 3 days of rain will certainly make it interesting.
    There was plenty of water around when we did it 2 years ago, in the rain, with the camper.
    There are some sporty sections......make sure you stay on the track, 'cos it can get very soft just off it.
    Enjoy......

    yeh should be fun, there are 9 of us going at this stage, it has been quite wet out there over the last couple of weeks too so this last bit of rain will make it more challenging, i was hoping for a relaxing trip just to get away from work and i still hope its like that but we will see when we get going.

    Have fun mate, heads up on the Gopro, if it is brand new make sure you do the update before you go, also download the App for your phone as it allows you to use it as a remote control and remote screen to view both where it is pointing and when you are recording if you have it outside the car. Nothing worst than shooting video and being off shot by 5degrees.

    Have a great time.

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    Enjoy yourselves.

    I'd be checking with the authorities/local governments BEFORE you go, as we've had quite a bit of rain out this way and I'm not sure if the roads are open/closed.

    I know in the Shire of Mukinbudin, ALL gravel roads have been closed to heavy vehicles a couple of times over the past couple of weeks.

    Take care out there.
