Wow, what an awesome day to do a Recce for this trip!!
Dru and Kerry came along to help me assess the correct grading for these trails, as they haven't driven some of them before.
The trails we will be taking, in particular Prado Run and the southern approach to Lost City, are proper C+, if not C++ trails.
There are plenty of technical sections, with small steps, up and down, wombat holes, as well as a good number of off camber challenges. I wouldn't recommend new drivers attempt this run.
There is a lot of brush close to the trails, so expect them to contact your paint.
It is possible you could finish up with minor damage, not that I did today.
After taking a look at Pipeline and Moon Rock, we won't be attempting those as they have seriously deteriorated and are well into the B Grade territory now.
Please remember to fuel up before you arrive as there is nothing close at hand. Coming from Sydney, Mt Victoria is the closest on the way, otherwise Lithgow is the other option.
We had a lot of fun today, if the weather is the same next week, I expect it to be a fabulous day out.
See you all next Saturday morning.
Cheers
Ben
disappointing about pipeline and moon rock, haven't done them yet, was looking forward to it.

Good fun joining Ben’s reccie for this trip yesterday. As usual Ben was showing off trails that were virgin territory for us.
Trip starts right from from the front o to the challenges and the C+ definitely touches C++. Awesome trip. Enjoy it everyone!
