Day 2
Cheers for those suggestions mate , will have a look tomorrow.
Today we did few tracks. Nothing to exciting in the morning but after lunch things got a bit more interesting.
Haven't got any pics at the moment will have to wait till I get home and upload a few from my camera.
With bog holes and steep tight climbs. Damage so far. Bent side step. Most of the tracks didn't have names or even inthe map.

This is a small bog hole with a tight left turn up hill as soon as you cross. This is where my side step got a wack.

Day 3
Big day today. Bog holes, hudge deep ruts and a couple of recoveries.
First we went down XL track and found a side track off of XL that ended up nowhere and had to turn back image.jpg
We found Lloyd track and had a look and quite enjoyed it. image.jpgimage.jpg
Thanks for the tip throbbinhood.
Next we had a look up a track running north off of lloyds track with hudge ruts up a hill.
This was a challenge at took us over a hour to get all four vehicles up about 300 meters after which we had a deserved lunch break.

We followed this all the way up to Burnt Mill Rd and not far along came to an unmarked track off to the north. This is we did all of our winching getting out of various bog holes. We tried to go around what we could but some were unavoidable or we slipped in from the side. Good to get the winching gear out for a bit of practice.

No pics of the winching yet as they are all on my camera and will upload some when I get back home. These pics were done on my phone so sorry about the poor quality.

I reckon one bog hole on Burnt Mill Rd is lined with number plates.
This is a track off Carroll's lane. Pic is of a Mates MQ

Didn't see any number plates but did see a couple of side steps on the side of the tracks. Havering the day in today as one of our numbers has a steering issue to correct in town. Should be fix about 4 or 5 o'clock. So thought we would take advantage of a bad situation and rest up for the day around the house then pick the car up and do a night drive. Might try and find Carroll's lane. And no mate didn't find any old bridges.

If you drive out of Gisbourne going toward bacchus marsh its about 7 k out of town on the right
follow it out to Firth Park, plenty of Yabbies if there is water, nice spot to have lunch as well.
We just picked any track left or right and see what happened lol plenty of overgrown tracks
so plenty of pin striping

Brother Mark, With all the 35'' tyres and bigger. that have gone before. these ruts are just too deep for our 33''
and we keep getting hung up,

Nice gentle pull with a snatch strap was all that was needed. We did the first couple with the winch then went to leaving the snatch straps attached and just towing out. Quicker and less fuss, especially when your doing it every five minutes.
