EOI Watagans Exploration first week Jan
Mentioned this in the last club meeting, but we will be looking to a couple of day trips into the Watagans at the end of the holidays - from New Year through to Sunday 7.1.18. Let us know if interested in joining us.
We are hunting for B grade and more, so vehicles need the usual preparation - recovery points and recovery gear, off road tyres, lift, rock rails, first aid, reliable sense of humour - these are the sort of trips that have the highest risk of becoming stuck! Also very likely to be infrequent use roads which in the Watagans means heavily overgrown and scratchy.
Thoughts on possible day trips
If you know the area we'd like to test Harris Rd and Bowmans on one trip - grade unknown but possible C+/B with a likelihood of plenty of mud, deep in places with no bypass options. We would love to map a return trip from these trails into Yengo for a return to Sydney via Wisemans Ferry.
Would love to get back into Zig Zag, Whiteman's Ridge, Whiteman's Lane etc. We know a little more about these trails now so I'm going to call them for A grade, 3" lift, 35"s, proven rock rails, winch. A grade means risk of damage is higher than usual. You will scrape on these trails. Reliable lockers are recommended here.
Other tracks we want to poke our nose into are Rope Rd, Fence Line, Tunks Fire trail, Big Pole, Smithy's. Grades unknown, possible C+ but we'll know more when we get there. Several of these are out and back tracks.
Feel free to contact me if you have days that suit.
