How was the trip? Did many vehicles go? What were the conditions like? Did the trip actually happen as I'm basing my assumption on a vague memory of a mention about it.

where is sunset country? we had 3 trips over the weekend. a trip to Robe, (returning via Avoca i think), a trip to Border track, and Gregs Cup day cup to Warburton. Sounds like they all went pretty well. Id say that there would have been over 20 vehicles from the club on some kind of trip over the weekend. It was great to see so many Sierras on one trip too. I think we had 7 (including the jimny) on the cup day cup

The Border track is in Sunset Country. Probably my favourite place in Victoria can't wait to get back up there. Didn't know there was a Robe trip, can't wait to get back there next easter. Good to see that there were ome trips happening with good turn outs.

Did Bill take his new Jeep, if so how did it go. I'd imagine he lead the trip to Robe?

We had 9 on the Border Track trip. Did the Murray-Sunset section and on down to the "open" gates at Ngarkat then turned back and went in to Big Desert and Wyperfeld and on to Little Desert and home. Had a ball with conditions ranging from wet and windy at the start to fine and sunny as the weekend progressed. The tracks were pretty good. Not sure how many did the Robe trip.

No its was "surprisingly" quiet, a very few two's and three groups. On one of our earlier trips up that way its was like CitylLink on a bad day.

Perhaps the threat of rain put people off - certainly worked in our favor.
