Great to see so much enthusiasm ! Campsites are large and we won't be in a rush to cover distances so we can have fun with a good big camping group. Looking forward to seeing you all there , I think there will be a few wanting to stay at the howqua hills campsite on Friday , I will keep the official trip start as Saturday morning at merijig for communication, nav and gathering reasons but the convoy can collect campers on the way through sheep yard flat so long as you flag in advance where you will be , feel free to PM me via forum.

The campsites are all free public camping areas , some are alpine NP others are state Forest , we have intentionally avoided public holidays and school holidays in the hope of minimal traffic.

Hello team,
Very keen to finally join ny first ever trip with the group.
I currently have a 2009 Grand Vitara stock as a rock, with All Terrains.
Was wondering if there's still more room for me +1. Also, does the trip end on Sunday arvo let's say? Not sure if I got that right.
Cheers.

Hi Alex and jaquiB , welcome to join us , takes the number to 15 cars , looks like a very social trip.
Plan was to be finished mid afternoon on Sunday.
As stated trip is appropriate for standard cars, Grand Vitara on all terrains will be fine.

Hey Darcy,
Thanks for the reply. You can count me in.
Will confirm soon if I have an extra person joining me, but I will probably will be coming solo.

I have a stock standard Jimny - no tyre update or lifts,etc. It'll just be me and my rooftop tent, is this suitable?

Also will we get a rundown of events for the weekend, like exact meeting locations, requirements, etc.?
Thanks! Looking forward to it
