    Default Lithgow - Zigzag - 14th July Saturday

    Where -- Lithgow Zigzag
    When -- 14th July Saturday
    Meet -- Richmond Maccas 8.30am, Departure @ 9am
    Time -- Departure @ 9am from Richmond Maccas
    Grade -- C+ possibly harder

    We will be driving to Wolgan Rd and air down at the start of Beecroft. Once we are through Beecroft, onto Blackfellows and back down to Wolgan Rd. There is also a servo at the start of Wolgan Rd so easier to fill up and get petrol.

    Requirements -- Recovery points Front/Rear, recovery gear, radio, food/drink of choice, camera.
    I also have 1 spare handheld.
    This run is limited to 10+ vehicles including leader.
    Further info contact Tam Nguyen - 0416 461 207

    Basically an exploration mission going up the Beecroft Fire Trail and the Blackfellows Hand trail (I think that is what it is called)
    Don't know what to expect of these tracks since the last time.

    Also noticed that trees have been cut down to block pathways so If someone could please bring a chainsaw... just in case

    Why have trees been cut down to block paths? Little concerned about removing them depending on the reason they were put there and by who. Also be carefull carrying a chainsaw I'm not sure thay are allowed in that area as you are close to or possibly in Wollemi National Park.

    I'm sure he was only joking Steve, because as you well know the Sydney Jeep Club could not support actions against our tread lightly policy.

    It was great last time I went down the beecroft track. It's going up and through the blackfellows I reckon will be a little harder.
    As for trees, that area is classed as state forest. Have noticed that people have been cutting trees blocking paths for no reason what so ever.
    I'm only trying to keep the track clear of any obstacle or trash.

    Haven't actually been down blackfellow yet so its an exploration mission for me on that track.

    Don't worry. I still remember to tread lightly
