Camping trip at the end of year

Unsure to whether it is ago or not, but thinkin with some mates that there might be a 4-7 day trip around christmas, it will involve lake spicer and hentei dunes, obviously more on the way.
Is the other trip still going on??> the one which was on the last forums? I think a few people where interested in that one, sounds good.

G'day Fatz,
There is a few that will be keen I reckon,
Bluesteel and his Mates are up for it I think,
I am too, but will come across from the East over the central highlands, raiding trout on the way.
BIG TROUT

Let us know the dates and plan.

Cheers
Matt

Thought you might like to see the damage from our first attempt at spicer

yes it wasnt lifted with road tyres

can hardly recognise that car now, and i think i still have that sunny somewhere...

i think that the barge at corinna is still going, but dont know for sure. Is there a track from the heads to corinna along the river?

Im also pretty keen to go to Balfour, if anyone is interested.

When do you hope to have monsta back in action bluesteel?

this could turn out to be quite an event, for tas anyway

ok was talking to a mate that lives down that way yesterday he said the track to pieman heads from temma is nothing but extreem and the track to corrina from there is worse.

BRUMBERTY · Post by **BRUMBERTY** » Tue Oct 18, 2005 4:15 pm
