Exploring Eastern part of Dargo MEDIUM / HARD

Eastern part of Dargo, VIC
See more trips
Running a trip to explore the Eastern side of Dargo. We will checkout couple POI and campsite. I have never been to the area so prepare the unexpected. No set plan on where to stay on Sat night yet, will see how we travel and decide the camp. On Sunday, we will head up to Billy Goat and Pinnacles and decide where go from there. Heading back to Melbourne on Monday morning.

This trip is for experienced 4wder only. My son will be coming with me for his first time proper HC camping trip.

I will put this trip as Medium/Hard due to the fact that possible wet condition and unknown tracks.

Meeting at Stratford on Sat 23rd Apr

Sorry guys, I will have to reschedule this trip due to the bad weather forecast. With the wet condition in the area, it may make sense to be safe and come back later when the weather is better.

Hey guys, I have now rescheduled this trip to the Anzac Day long weekend on 23 Apr - 25 Apr.

Please confirm if you can go. If not, please withdraw. I will open this trip to public if I don't get enough people in the next few days.

Hope can see you soon.

Guys I'm booked for Easter long weekend and as the 80 is the only powered steed in the fleet at the moment, and I need to fill it up, -where's that 20cpl excise cut (!) - so I wont be able to make 2 long weekends in row . But have fun and find some new camp spots for sure !

Keen as for this trip.

I'm taking Friday off and might head up Friday night instead instead of Saturday morning.

Anyone doing same?

I may try to get away on Fri too but since the meeting point will be at Stratford, I may camp at the caravan park instead to get some good night sleep.

Oops, the above comment should be from me: "I may try to get away on Fri too but since the meeting point will be at Stratford, I may camp at the caravan park instead to get some good night sleep."
