It took us 3.5 hours one-way with a couple of snack/photo breaks.

Here's a video of some highlights. As always, best viewed at 720p.

We did a trip through just after Christmas. No worries at all for 2 Suzuki's and a quad bike. Some pretty awesome scenery along the way. While the track itself wasn't anything particularly difficult I guess it's always a good idea to have another vehicle close by especially since its a 46km track.

Excuse the radio music in the background

Awesome day out thanks Greg! Good to meet you guys - give us a yell when you are down this way and we can organise a trip. Will work on putting a video together this week.

Truck without snorkle will be fine, if it's too deep, we'll sort out alternatives. Tim has rented a Holden Rodeo for the day and we don't want to kill it, so be good to see you there. Leaving Ashhurst Domain Camp grounds at 09:30 on Saturday morning, will be on PRS channel 9. cheers Greg 0272560470 ...

Also keen on coming up for this. Only question is - will a truck without a snorkel be okay in Ashurst River?

The guys on the trip sent me their photo's so here are a few of my favorites. I got heaps of video footage and will put a clip together when I get the chance. http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o82/Marco091/2013-10-12141311.jpg http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o82/Marco091/IMG_20131012_141249.jpg ...

Had an awesome time yesterday. Here's a few pictures of the washout from Friday night - i'd estimate 4m deep and about 10m wide at full flow We managed to walk through it and down to the hut, vehicle access to the hut is now impossible until all that mud hardens... even then it will require some ...

Out of interest, does the track continue on past that green hut??

I've never been past the hut myself. Apparently years ago it linked up to Otaki forks but from what I've heard and read the track quickly deteriorates past the hut and is impassable by 4wd's.

Doing another Odlins trip on the 12th of October. Meeting up in the top carpark at 10am (directly opposite Waiotauru Road). Last trip was a good one with 5 trucks even though it bucketed down all day. Videos from last trip can be found in the other thread. http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o82 ...

Threw together a quick video. Might have to get a Go Pro for the next trip.

Watch at 720p!

Heading from Wellington, is faster to take the SH2 to Upper Hutt and turn up Akatawara road and through shitloads of twisty forest, or is it better just to take SH1 straight to Waikanae and drop in from the top?? m I'd say it is probably faster to come up to Waikanae and then head up. That twisty ...

So far looks like.. Myself 1kz_surf lax2wlg dutchy KZJ70 jason Should be fun. Ment to be a bit of rain over the weekend too so should make things interesting. Meet up top at the carpark area opposite the start of Odlins (officially named Waiotauru Road for google maps purposes) at 10am. I'll be ...

I'm keen for the 21st but I've got CCVC stuff both days this weekend and I was away last weekend so I may have to spend that weekend doing the family thing... Have people decided if it's a day trip or an stay-over? Just a day trip. Meet up at the top carpark area (directly opposite the start of the ...

Fair call on doing the training day - they don't come up all that often. I have changed the date to the 21st. Hopefully this date still works with everyone.

Daytrip or overnight?

Probably just a day trip. Up to you guys though, I'm easy.

Myself and Mattman are doing an Odlins Road trip on the 21st of September. Depending on the track condition we'll go down to Waiotauru Hut. Post up here if your interested

Cool mapping pic. What app did you use to create that? My mate had his Garmin eTrex in the glovebox. It makes a file which you can then load onto Google Earth - once its in Google Earth you can click on any part of the track to find speed, elevation, time of day etc. Pretty cool device really ...

Awesome trip in the akatarawas today. Fun day! Couple more pics and map of where we went (starting at Judgeford end) - http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o82/Marco091/2013-08-17160239.jpg http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o82/Marco091/2013-08-17130854.jpg http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o82 ...

I'll be going. Last trip they did to the aka's had a 25 truck turnout!

Thanks for the welcome! Nah but I bought it off a guy in Lyall Bay, i'm in Churton Park. Wasn't really in the market for a new car but this popped up and I had to have it

Hi i'm Mark. Bought a '96 Suzuki Samurai yesterday and I am keen to see what this thing can do. Hopefully will attend some training days in the near future as I have very little offroad driving experience. The truck maybe better known around here as ZOOK http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o82 ...
