Steve, do you think my jku will handle the grading of this trip. The last trip I did with Dru where your steering came adrift was a little difficult over that one step.
Cheers Rob

Hi Rob,
There is one short climb which some rigs may need to be winched or snatched up, mainly due to being a bit rutted by constant driving on. Have only been there twice myself so not all that familiar with all areas there. The track is approx. 12.2km's with 6 to 8 climbs or descents depending which way you are travelling of course but each has to done twice anyway. Harder than Mt. Airly but you can break on any grade track as I well know. I am hoping to do a mid-week day or evening run there before this run to get a better feeling for the track/climbs etc. As they say, your Jeep can do it, but are you ready for it...Lol....

Apologies Steve, I'm already out. Apparently I have a horse racing day and charity auction at Rose Hill then...

Wheeny has changed a lot. You will have damage as all the chicken tracks are no longer chicken tracks. And the steps have all gotten bigger due to big trucks chopping up all the lines. One of the last sections in almost impassable unless you have big lift and big tyres and lockers. Good luck to you all.
Sounds like fun, I'm hoping it's not too bad as I'm planning on using this trip as a bit of a shake down for my new to me rig.
Im out. Too many things on now One day I'll get there.
Cheers

Steve, looks like only 2 or 3 vehicles will be going. When were you thinking of doing a reccie? I may join you if it not between 11-14/8. If you don't mind me tagging along.
Cheers Rob
Steve, sorry can't join you on the reccie. Going on a sampler cruise of 4 days from11/8. Could do it the next week. Please let me know what condition the track is in and whether I'm likely to suffer any damages. Need to have my jeep good for the border trip coming up.
Cheers RobS
