Maaaaaate, you missed out on the most epic trip EVER. The day before we went it up it had 30cm dump of snow for a total of 1m. It was the best driving i have ever done. The sun come out for the friday and sat so we were driving on virgin powder in the sun. After having so much fun climbing up the mountain we decided to build an igloo, the whole team pitched in and it was so big it had its on bar with stools all built out of ice. THEEEN it was about 4pm and the booze had started flowing and we heard this V8 trucks coming up the mountain that sounded awesome, and what happened next was unbeliavable. It was the all blond, all women swedish 4wding team, looking for snow in the southern hemisphere for there summer. Anyway they saw our igloo and were so impressed they decided to stay. Anyway the less set about that the better (what happens on the mountain stays on the mountain), its probarly better just to say a 3 men can be too small sometimes.

Either that all happened or.....There wasnt much snow, just sight seeing pacthes. Nice weather with a frost overnight. No snow driving but we did find one nice little hill to play on that would be un driveable in the snow. Had a couple of quiet ones on the saturday night with come good company and some noisy ones at the pub on the sat night with a hangover on sunday (well one of us). My dif was broken early sunday afternoon on a gentle track just out of town after most of the club had left. It ended up getting a 200km tow curtisy of total care. Overall it was a great camping weekend, but you might of be disapointed coming all the way out here when there was little snow.


Steve, you ruined it LOL.

But at least you can hose it out

Steve.

Sounds and looks like I missed a good trip, though without snow I don't mind so much.

Looking forward to the video.

thanks for a great weekend away team.

i reckon it might be worthwhile discussing a 'flexible date' setup for our permits next year - i.e. get approval nice and early, then just email a final update through the day before the weekend we decide to head up on.

there must be locals that live up there and drive that road repeatedly without having to reapply all the time.
