Finally got around to finishing this Trip Report.
3 hrs after leaving Skipworth, we arrived at Knockwood Reserve. Everyone was ready for a bite to eat and stretch the legs after the longest '10 minutes to lunch' that I can remember. Those on the trip will know what I mean.... Some just sat around with the pit dunnies being a welcome sight, especially for the females, whilst others went down to the creek. Dutchy's dog had a facination with collecting rocks from the creek bed,
We all agreed that Knockwood was a great place to set up camp, especially if 4wding around Woods Point, and after the mandatory group shot, we made our way to Webber Spur and Black River Tks.
Webber Spur is a nice track, nothing overly difficult, UNLESS you try a couple of the un named tracks that rejoin the main track. One in particular is the one just before the river, but the Trip Leader thought one a little earlier was the one, so suggested to those wanting the 'hard bit' go straight ahead, whilst those wanting the easier option, veer right'. Got it 'arse about' so those taking the so called easy option found it a little character building'.... Came to the narly section and only Gazza & Alex went down, but unfortunately my footage did not come out.... Both said they not drive up it. It was now through the small river and up to Black River Tk; which is nice steep climb with everyone doing a great job. We then made our way back along Lazzarini Spur and Army Tracks to the main road. Pretty boring drive, but some firewood was collected and some of the nice campsites pointed out on the drive back to Skipworth. It had been a big day and everyone was looking forward to some dinner then sitting around the campfire to have a few drinks. Most of us 'hit the sack' a little earlier this night.
