Add me to the list please. Looks like the trip needs more than one Sierra to get the pig rigs up the hill

Hi Greg
Just got my $29 Aldi snow boots so now I am all set. Count me in for the the day trip please. My wife Vera will most likely come as well (at this stage anyway). I have booked accommodation of an acceptable standard in Mansfield but I can cancel by 25 July if needed.
Jimny YCB 836
Alternate vehicle ACP 923 (but I won't have snow chains for this vehicle - see my note in the post below)

There is a note on the 4WD Vic site about the Mt Skene permits and it was updated yesterday but I cannot actually find the article. I have emailed them to ask when the applications can be submitted.

I found the application for here:
https://4wdvictoria.org.au/index.php/mt ... full-dates
So applications are open and the form can be downloaded by following the link above. It is not easy to find. You need to be logged in and its under Resources/Track permits.
I have downloaded it but it seems I cannot attach a pdf here so I will email it to Jon and Luke. I also noticed that a new condition of approval is that a minimum of one vehicle must carry snow chains. I don't mind buying some if no-one else has any as long as someone can recommend a place to buy them and what type. That means I will be in the Jimny because I am not buying two sets of chains.

Hi Chris
Could not find their prices but they are only $160 on ebay. I am just checking some questions with the seller.

Not sure about the freight price though.

I'd just hire them, never seen anyone buy them as you only use once then they float around the garage , eBay would be best bet if you want to buy.

It’s not like you’ll use them.
