An overnighter in the Watagans.

The basic plan is to set up camp in The Pines campgrounds early saturday and leave the rest of the day for exploring playing or just relaxing round the campsite.

Tracks of all descriptions can be found and rather than set exact trips I thought I'd wait to see who turns up etc.

An invite has been put out to the Central Coast Club and also the Raymond Terrace 4WD club whom a few of us did the sugarloaf trip with recently.

If all goes to plan I will head up on friday night to get a good spot and set up the basics such as the tarps, BBQ's etc.

Grades will be D - A

Numbers are not limited but I would like to know if you are coming or not.

Trip Leader: Brad Lawson 041 044 0988 or jeepa@ihug.com.au

Trip will be cancelled if no response prior to end of month.

Brad -

Love to go, but it turns out that I had my dates screwed up. Apparently we are due to look after our Cooma neighbour's property and animals over the weekend from Thursday evening to Sunday night. They are going to Newcastle for the son's wedding and pleaded with us to let them go. If we aren't able to look after their whole farm for that period, they can't go to the wedding.

Sure you guys don't want to come to Cooma instead?

Of this site!

You were not listed as a Club Member, although you were a basic Forum member.

Club members get to see an additional Club Members-only forum, and you need to let your dad in on what's happening....

Same here...we can do one of the days...Only stars Pela sleeps under are five. She's been camping once in her life and had a horrible time. I've gotta get her broke in on it...
But we'll be up for one of the days Brad. Let you know which closer to game time.

Trip Update.

Plans to head up friday night have been thrown out the window as I won't be leaving adelaide until 4.30PM on friday arvo. By the time I get into sydney and across town it'll be geeting late and I won't have packed the car so the plan for those wanting to head up with me wilkl be meeting on the F3 at 7.30PM just up from the Pacific Hwy on ramp.

We'll be camping at or near the pines so if anyone is going upo friday night, make sure you grab a good campsite with plenty of room for tents, kids to play etc.

Will talk more about it at tonights meetiong and will update post later this week.

Shaping up to be a good weekend.

Mildue

Brad
what about other members from other clubs? are they still going? are they camping up there? :?
Coz it seems like alot of our members just want to do day trips up there...

Jaffas

Would love to do an overnighter, but its just a busy time of year, with too many things happening and can't afford to be out of town for a whole weekend... Maybe March/April might be better for a camping weekend? Just a thought...

If anyone is still planning a day trip on Sat, I might/should be available, else we will just have to do the Watagans another weekend...

Dorzun

Still, happy to do a day trip on saturday if others are keen. Did not get any response directly from other clubs and if no one gets back to me it's not my problem as far as I am concerned.

I'd love to still do the overnighter but theirs reasons I am not going to share that I cannot. And before anyone ask's, no it wasn't the better half, she was actually looking forward to it.

I will run the weekend at some stage in feb/march next year though.

If you are keen on the dat trip, please call me on 041 044 0988 as I am in adelaide until late friday afternoon and won't be online again until I get home.

Well looks like its 2 for Sat, and 2 for Sun... hmmm... well, i can't get out of commitments for Sun, so maybe I may just have to pike and we can line it up for another time???

Unless there are others around for Sat???
