Us too. See you there.

In the last 3 hours I've changed my rear diff, radiator & coolant, rocker cover gasket, oil & filter and spark plugs..

Should be good now. :mrgreen:

So Friday night saw a new rear diff, radiator, oil & Filter, rocker cover gasket and spark plugs going into my car which was way overdue for a service

We only ended up with 3 cars, Leigh was out Sick, Jon blew a gasket of some sort and Josh broke a rear diff on the first obstacle.
Image

There was a healthy amount of snow on the summit and it snowed while we were up there
a little video of Jono on his board

Steve and I drove down the Barkley River road, but none of us went up it,
Image

We (again without Jono) did go up the unnamed track from the bottom of the Barkley River Road to about half way back up to the summit area.
Image

Had another play in the snow on Sunday and a walk to a hut that's not there any more near the summit,

Stopped at the brewery briefly for a game of pool and a beer on the way home.

Good trip!

Thanks for the report Neo. The video was listed as private so it could not be viewed.
