Hey Jerry. I am good at this stage for either weekend.
Would the trip have the option to just run one of the day legs? or once you are in there is no getting out until the end of day 2

cant make the 2nd but free on the 3rd

did takapari the other weekend with Gaza, the drive to the hut is easy, but on a nice day fantastic views. the tracks after the hut however are a bit of a hoot, muddies and tow hooks required, esp if you have a safari on 33's.... :mrgreen:

Cheers Jerry

We will see you by 11am at the domain.
As the domain looks fairly large is there an obvious place where you will all be?
