Lake Lyle (Lithgow): Sunday 06/07/2014

[TRBN8R]

Hi Jeepels,

Long time no see due to new roster clerk not doing her job properly and screwing up all the weekends for me for the last few months. I got a weekend off and am planning a trip to Lake Lyle on Sunday 06/07/2014. It will be a C Grade trip. Covering the usual route from the quarry to the big climb, Cox's River crossing and then to Mt Walker. Mt Walker is a good B Grade but is optional depending on interest and time. Time will be aprox 8am departure to 5pm return to Richmond Meccas. Please read the details below and post up if interested.

When: Sunday 06/07/2014
Where: Lake Lyle
Trip Grade: C+ (B Options with bypasses available)
Numbers: 15 Including me.
RV Point 1: 0730Hrs McDonalds, March Street, Richmond 0730Hrs for breakfast. 0800Hrs on the road.
RV Point 2: 0930Hrs Shell Servo, 1 Great Western Hwy, South Bowenfels.
Expected time of return to RV Point 1: 1700Hrs
Vehicle Requirements: Good AT or MT Tyre 31inch and above. Standard JKs, TJs, XJs, KJs and similar Jeeps welcome but a minor 40 mm lift is advisable to avoid dragging the underbelly over the rocks. Doing this trip in a KK Cherokee and similar cars with extra low front bumper and side steps and is not advisable due to foreseeable damage.
Must have 2 Way radio, Recovery points front and rear, Recovery straps, Adequate food and water.
Bring Kids, Family, Cameras etc as you please.
(For Mt Walker 2 inch lift, 33 inch tyres and at least one locker are now must as the midway approach has now been gated off, leaving only the gnarly approach open.)
