As per the trip report that I posted-the runva winch on the cruizer died (again) have had trouble with brushes and drive dogs (have tried the new steel ones too)

That truck actually drove the rest of the track once we let the tyres down, we were just preserving tyre pressure so they didn't come off the beads as we dont have beadlocks...

Sweet, As always the pics dont do this place justice. We didnt get asny of the really gnarly stuff as we were pretty busy, would be good to have someone take the pics.

My mates sister used to tag along on some of our trips and we'd get some good pics from her.

I seem to forget to pull my phone out to take more pics etc but eventually I get so muddy I don't wanna touch the thing haha.

In the first pics that Hilux surf is that Karlins with the Lexus v8? I recall him a while ago going up there and having to leave it there but I didnt hear it from him it was from someone else and never asked him about that.
