Decided I want to drive some snow this year, so providing I can get my junk running properly I will be heading up to Buxton on Sunday the 22nd of Aug.

This will be a bit of a recce as I don't know the area but have PM'd OPKen from outers who says there was snow above 870m last weekend, hopefully he will give me some track names.

Date: Sun 22nd August

Standard: Easy-Medium.

Meeting Location & Time: Igloo Rd House (Mobil) in Buxton at 09:30 to leave at 10:00.

Matt

what area are you planning on going? could you give some more details please.
Cheers

Sorry ATM all I can say is the Buxton area. Haven't heard back from OPKen so don't know any track names yet; as mentioned it will be a bit of recce as I don't know the area.

If anyone does know track names can you please let me know.

Hey Matt,

I've uploaded a map of the buxton and surrounding areas for you to Google Docs (*good idea Neo) if you want to have a look. It gives a general picture of where you will be going through. It's only and adventurer map series so it's not great for elevations etc but if you have Ozi explorer I have all of the CFA and DSE .ozf map files which you can read with a trial version of OziExplorer.

Ok slight change of plans, I heard back from OPKen and it turns out that the trip he ran is in much the same area as my previous trip to Marysville/Lake Mt. From his original description I thought he was going to be further nth than this, as a result I will run my trip in more or less the same area as I ran it last time. Will head out Lady Talbot Drive if it is open and see how far we can get.

We will now meet at the Mobil Fuel Station in Marysville at 10:00, or at least the spot where it used to be if it is no longer there, it was at 10 Murchison St.
The standard will be easy-medium with things tending to be on the easier side as I will have a stock JK with AT's tagging along.

I am going regardless of whether anyone else comes along.

I know where a most of few of the gates are here, but when I went though last week it looks like there are new gates now due to the fires.
Will be good to see how much its changed.

I am going to try and come on this trip. The petrol station is now a 1/4 shipping container and a pump.
