    Default Mt Airlie B Grade

    This may be the last run up this famous track for us. For those not familiar with the trail it is an iconic B grade run with few options or chicken tracks. It's been slated for closure by Parks for some time, not yet though. West of Sydney starting from Capertee which can make it a long day. Mostly, well prepared vehicles go fine but we have seen some damage on this trail that is well past "cosmetic".

    The trail runs through some incredible environment - this trip is very definitely "tread softly" care for the environment, pack out more than you pack in.

    Kerry and I are making a bit of a special occasion of this. We have booked into Hydro Majestic on the Friday Night and may possibly stay at Capertee pub on Saturday. You are welcome join us on both but it is not part of the trip as such.

    Where Mount Airlie (Genowlan Point Trail)
    When Saturday 26th October 2019
    Meet Meet in Capertee in the park. Shop is open and has fuel. You can get breakfast there but you need to allow time as country service is not as quick as Mackers ;-)
    Time Leave early from Sydney! Plan to be at Capertee for 8:30please. We head out at 9:00am sharp, sorry but late means you may miss us.
    Grade B Grade with a gnarly step at the mid point.
    Requirements Recovery points Front/Rear, recovery gear, radio, food/drink of choice, camera. Ideally 2" lift and off road tyres - this is not a stocker run, though Rubicon should be fine as long as you trust the stock rock rails (99.99% sure they will be tested hard in action).

    Front vehicle needs a winch as back up for the step - some trips just have not managed the step without winching. Winches are not mandatory but appreciated

    This run is limited to: Ideally groups should be kept to max 8. I'll look to split the group perhaps if it get's larger. We took 30+ at Jambo but really don't want to do that again.

    I would love to do this run to help farewell you both, but alas, know the limitations of my WH Grand.

    I trust this will be a memorable trip for all involved.

    Enjoy

    Ben.

    Thanks Ben, hopefully there is time to catch up.

    We’ve been a little quiet but House has now sold and re-certification for Qld is nearly done

    Lads did a great job on the first part.
    Shame we haven't gotten out for a wheel.
    Good luck in Queensland.
