I would be interested Sunday if I wasn't going on a car rally.

Midday Saturday suits me. Not sure what time Saturday suits others.

Hi Dave.

Well I drove through the entrance this afternoon and I didn't see any gate. Here's a clip of the run (excuse the music, it's a boring clip).

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1a69FE7Y934

I think if we met at the boat ramp and go from there? If there is a gate well just head to the closest entrance via Tram road? Looking at Google Earth, Madeleys Road looks a good option?

I would say gummies are a must as it's pretty boggy out there at the moment. :D :D
But any recovery gear you can get your hands on. I'm bring extra ropes, spade, 60'' highlift jack. :thumleft:

Pleased you enjoyed my wee video :wink: Had an awesome day that day, as i'm sure you guys will have. If my wife wasn't in Auckland at the cancelled concert and i wasn't doing the kid sitting duties i would be more than keen to come out for a play. Maybe next time. Have fun and remember "if your not getting stuck you're not trying hard enough" :wink:
