    Default Introduction Trip #3 Watagan s

    It looks like we need a third trip!

    This is a stock jeep trip, SJC-style. Established club members are most welcome, to help with any potential new members.

    Visitors - if you are interested, just register at the forum (no cost for that) then post your interest below.

    General: Consider this an introduction to the main access routes through the 4WD playground north of Sydney. Kerry and I have been gradually adding interesting off-piste bits, so I hope it's fun for everyone.

    Where: Watagans

    When:
    Saturday 2nd December 2017


    Meet:
    M1 Motorway services traveling North, just past Wyong. On Google it's called F3 Wyong North bound (Twin Servos). There is a Macca's and a healthy fast food as well. Meet up in the Macca's car park.


    Time:
    8:00 am for 8:30 departure. Please be fueled and fed.


    Grade:
    C Grade - easy.

    Generally graded trails. Most of the route on our Navigation tool shows speeds of 20 km/h. Not a lot of low range though we might add a couple of "off piste" alternates - just because we can. Generally the track conditions are similar to Black Fellows Hand Trail in Newnes.

    The Watagans are famous for mud and scratchy branches. . Not much we can do about that but we are carefully avoiding all known major bog hole challenges just can't guarantee you wont need to wash your Jeep afterwards. Likewise for overgrown scratchy bushes - we are avoiding all known scratchy tracks, just can't guarantee it. Plank Hill ws the worst of it in Trip 1, Wave Rock entry may have some small wet spots and branches, still C grade and definitely worth it.

    Requirements:
    Radio, food/drink of choice, camera. Full fuel tank. If you have recovery gear please pack it - no need to race out and purchase if you don't have any yet. Stock Jeeps are fine. Regarding Radio - convoy communications are a must. See what you can do to help us out.

    This run is limited to: 10
