Hard Trip- Yarra Sate Forest 9th June

Post by mika »

I know I'm being a bit optimistic posting a hard trip 6 days after another hard trip but is anyone interested in one last run up Ellis before closures come in?
I went for a quick look yesterday and justice and cemetery are still shut but I thought we could do a re-run of Day 1 AT. Western end of Brittania also looks very muddy. Given the weather tracks should be a little harder than at AT.

Sorry mate, we'll be away for the long weekend. I think you're right though, with as much rain as we've had it would be ideal for a challenging drive.

I'm also possibly away that weekend, but if I'm here, then I'm keen.

I think we should be able to get onto justice from the top end still. It was still open last time I was up there.

if you mean from the brittania range trk end then yes it appears to be open but I haven't been down it at all to see further down. If there's interest I will go for a better look to make sure we know exactly what is going to be open.

Cemetery end at the very top of the climb is where I was thinking. That was still open last time I was there.

sorry Greg, disregard my last post as I was getting myself confused.
I can easily check the top end and there may also be another way which was open as far as I went down.
