I passed you guys on the way up(you were going down),looks by the pics you guys were all but at the top.
Track rock hard,lots of grip but a good line is still needed due to the ruts being so deep.

Just putting the last couple of Pic's on at the moment, should be all loaded to the album in about half an hour, watch this space for the trip report which is also on its way.

Ok, all the photos are in the album and here is a link to the trip report.
Thanks again Mike for a fun day and a bit of a test for the old Bog standard Isuzu.

Yeah, Shane introduced me to my goal (ie, his wagon) when I posted my first intro post in the Nissan section. That's definitely what I'd like to do with mine, but when I showed the Mrs she wasn't too sure... might have to take it down a peg, but still gotta do it.
