Mt Dis Rec Trip - 18-Apr-2010 CANCELLED

Tentitive Date for a Rec Trip into Mt Disappointment
Quick Brief About the Trip:
This area was heavily closed off back in 2007/08 so that DSE could cut a new fire break through the forest. Then in 2009, the forest was heavily affected by the bushfires....
I spoke to the local park ranger via telephone a few month ago who suggested that the roads would be open again for the 2009/10 summer season.
So - this would be my first trip back into the area since all of that had occurred. Everyone says that there is nothing there to drive, but people say the same thing about every location once the tracks that everyone knows about dissapear.
I would suggest that this is really just a pre-run trip. There will be lots of terrain to cover, and i'm sure lots of u-turns due to track closures.
