Depending on how much rain they get tonight. I am going tomorrow and I will message Toddyh and let him know what the river looks like. If it's high I will camp at the bottom of the hill (track on left down hill).

I should be there by lunch on Friday.

See you then.
No update yet. I don't think he's been down there. As Richard said he's heading down today so hopefully he can update us over the next day or so.

Anyone got any info on the river yet? Will bring some wood as most there is probably wet haha
Any idea of difficulty of trails if we go day tripping later on? Don't have the front locker in yet, so dunno about capability in the mud and slop!

The river is up but dropping. Hopefully it will drop enough by tomorrow to cross safely. If not we will camp along it without crossing.

We will definitely need firewood. There's no collection allowed in the national park and all the fence posts we are dealing with will be steel so obviously can't burn those. So if everyone can bring at least some firewood we should have enough.

I have about a bag of red gum from the summer...will bring that down

 

[ben_g_2154]

No problem I'll grab some firewood this arvo
