Hi Guys,
I am interested in coming on this trip but I don't have mud tyres, will that be an issue?

In this case it wouldn't be a great idea pal. It's quite a steep and muddy area. It may be ok with aggressive AT but you'll need lift and a winch also.

I do have a lift kit and reasonably new AT's (photo attached), but it sounds like you are planning a hard core trip so I may give it a miss this time.

No no, it won't be too hardcore. By all means come along. We won't be doing anything that'll freak anyone out. :) It's a great area and you'll have a good time.

Hey Eddie,
Yeah a few of the tracks are graded but I'm hoping it's really wet to make it interesting. There are a few good ones still. Get better.
