Licola trip payment information and other details
I may be able to borrow one off the old man if required... It maybe worthwhile for the crew driving in from moe to have more than one chain saw given the number of trees likely to be down? Just a thought...

There are pretty much no campsites on the Licola side of the river (well there are but they're on the river). Once you climb out from the gorge towards Licola the only places you'd have to camp would be on the ridge or helipad and that would be really sh!t at this time of year.
Plenty of campsites on the Walhalla side.

Thanks Drewboyaus. Might leave this trip for the summer and find somewhere a bit more accessible. Missus has been a little timid last few trips after a near mishap a while back, so might be better off taking it easy.

I blame Jonathan for not having the balls to go away without AB!

It was extremely slippery last year around this time, but it was a bit wetter too ..... we just let our tyres down to around 16 - 18 PSI to make sure we had good traction, and it was all OK .. I had no issues at all, and there was only one small moment with one of the Landcruisers in our crew.
You will definitely enjoy it whenever you choose to go....

Didn't you see the first thread about this? No fires and heaters allowed. Only spooning and man cuddles allowed....

Thanks mate, I'll wait for the trip reports when you guys all get back and see whether it's worth heading down.
In terms of hill climbs, would it compare to Deep Creek 1 in Walhalla?
