Re: NO NAME RD
No names pretty tame, went through last weeken in the saf, most of it's doable in 2wd unless the greenstones got a bit of water coming down it. Gorse has closed in a bit in the odd place but mostly good going. A bit of fun around the mud plug mid way through. I went down cockeye about November last...

Re: Macetown trip?
Macetown is a great drive. It is about an hour in and an hour out but well worth exploring more by foot, the booklet mentioned is great, if you don't know what used to be there then the place is meaningless. The river is low and crossings all have firm bottoms ( :lol: ). It is clear also, if it is ...
