Can people let me know roughly what time and day they expect to get to Pink Lakes meeting point.
So I can decide on trip leaving time on Monday.
Reminder need to be fuelled up a ready to go bush.
Be no fuel stop, or shops for 2 -3 days
Note fuel suppliers asre not all 24hr 7 days type, and a some are self serve with cards.
My research suggests Sea Lake and Berriwillock is last 24 hr fuel if going that way.

UHF channel 26.
But look on 10 and 21 if 26 is too busy.
I use the name Christo or Christover on the radio.

Hi Fellas.
Really looking forward to this trip. Hope the weather doesn't spoil it for us. Can't wait to fly the flag for the Sierras.
I will be thinking of you all at work next week.
Regards, Wayne.

Weather won't matter.
Rain makes sand a bit easier to drive on.
And will be avoiding bog holes when possible, anyway.
Cooler days and warmer nights if clouds predicted happen.
If skies are clear, nights can get very cold.
Weather forecast looking good for the area, but who trusts a weather person anyway
Have bought 3 packs of Mystical Fire for the camp fire, looking forward to see how well it works.

Hi Fellas.
Lots of rain. Great driving but not much fun camping in such rotten weather.
Finished Border Track about midday today and decided to head for home and dry out.
Got home at 9.00 pm.
Thanks heaps Chris for organising this epic trip. Also Emile and "The Bros" for their cheerful company.
Regards, Wayne.
