That should work if you don't get held up. We'll be tackling Alcorn first thing, which may take awhile for Jase to get up :D so you should be able to join us. Just let us know how you are going?

If anyone can bring someone handy with a camera too, that would be great so I'm not stuck taking all the photos again.

I'd like to take some video too of everyone on Alcorn Tk, should be interesting!

Hi Eddie,
Haven't had that chat with Special K but after consideration, have decided that I better not join your trip as I'll be away from the lovely Kylie for 5 days next week and I better not push my luck😉.
Have a great day guys and I look forward to reading your trip report.

Will you guys be tackling the main track at alcorn or will you be taking the left hand side track?

Good effort if you actually hit the main track the whole way up.

Would of loved to take my rig through there with some decent guidance but unfortunately i am working today.

I will be at cobaws tonight for a friends bday camp/4bee session so if they are game i may hit it up tonight.
