Hey mate, I will be doing a recce run for my Nov beginner trip on the same day. If you don't have enough people to join your trip, you can tag along (or vice versa). My plan is to explore and work out the route for the beginner trip so probably won't be doing any med/hard trip though.

Hi Musti, that's great. My mate (Jason in the brownish Jeep, he led a trip last time to Mt. Dissa) couldn't make it but I don't want to do a recce run on my own. If you don't mind, we can quickly explore the area so that I can map out the route for the beginner trip. Once I have done, we can go do more harder trck if you wish.
