I did part of this trip a month or so ago and the scenery is awesome. As one Property owner said from the top of a hill "If the Earth wasnt round you'd be able to see the back of your head"

Looks like the Weathers going to be good

Anyone actually go?
I was there and it was a nice day. Scenery was great.

Possum counting sucks tho, especially when there is just one in the vehicle, too hard to drive and look for them at the same time.

My egg survived tho and I won the stone throwing too!

Yeah i went. I wouldn't have thought there was 150 trucks though. I would have said 80 odd but i could be wrong. It was a bloody good day. It was very well organised and everything ran very smoothly. Nothing too challenging but was good to get the better half aquanted with the offroad capabilities of her Escudo (she drove).

Actually it wasnt too bad dust wise Al. Trucks were well spread out in the convoy.
