What a day.
Thanks everyone for being early. We got away ahead of time from Richmond and again from Lithgow. Way to go!
Baal Bone and its well known pinch points at each end, whew. Pretty sure they are both getting a little tougher, so Andy was called in for guidance skills pretty much right from the start. Everyone through both ends. For me the most spectacular being John (John and Di) on the way up. A leap on the "exhilarator" and a leap vertically - looked very much like a Mako Shark launching out of the sea to me. But along with everyone else a successful climb.
View is breath-taking from the top of Baal Bone.
The trip out is longer than the trip in, a bit of confusion at one intersection and some entertainment working out where everyone was and how to get back together. So wait at the junctions till the bloke behind sees you.
Sorry you had to leave at that point Shannon, but yes it had taken time. We had a chat about options and continued up to the Turon River for a late lunch. Most opting to have a look around the Turon. We were pretty sure that the convoy speed just wouldn't have made it back through to Sunny Corner in sun light. So most preferred to return back Castlereagh Hwy.
Kerry and I decided to continue on to make sure the proposed trip was at least offered. Offer taken up by Sean and Daphne (thanks guys!). And our much shorter ;-) convoy of two, buckled up to make a steady cruise pace and were airing up by 4:30. Convoy size really does make a difference.
If you want to know how Pinnacle and Black Butt are, ask Sean. OR we will have to run another trip. :-)
Hope everyone else enjoyed the river!

Always nice to meet new members and see their setup, and it is amazing how capable jeeps are... some as stocks and some with road tires, all made it through, great to watch.
