was a great trip, rather dusty on sat but great tracks and immense views, sunday was friggen mint, the tracks certainly a notch above your usual shiney tag along trip! Lucky the Navara i took had an ARB locker, as the road biased tires were certainly tested on sunday after a brief morning shower the tracks thru a lot of forest and native were rather greasy!

61 entrants and a handfull of support 4x4s meant a good travelling group with only minimal (ish) delays as well.

if you havent done this trip i reccomend it as the tracks are a cut above your usual easy going stuff!!!

pics to follow once i sort the stoopid new fotobucket :roll:
