At the 1st NSW meet and greet people started rolling into Cattai National Park from 10 am and set up camp in prep for a hearty BBQ lunch and some re-hydration from the dusty 1 klm or so of dirt road, its amazing how much that can dry you out! Lucky the eskies were full ;)

After a nice lunch about 7 of us thought it best that we go for a drive around the region whilst others stayed behind to further practice elbow bending:confused: in prep for the campfire and to be camp police.

We headed out to Colo and up Mountain Lagoon fire trail stopping for a little fun on a sidetrack that looked like a good opportunity to at least lock the hubs for a bit and get out of 2wd;).

Returning to camp a few hours later in time for dinner, a fire and a good relax whilst keeping the fluids up to avoid further dehydration issues.
Lots of laughs and stories around the fire made for an enjoyable evening.

All up a great meet up with all having a good time and getting to know one another in prep for some 4X4 adventures over the coming months.

Out of the 16 vehicles that attended we managed to get 1x Prado,1 x Triton and 1x Jeep wrangler all the rest were recovery vehicles :eek:– oops I mean Patrols:cool: , go figure…:confused::p:p;):D
