Sam, chances of tracks in the area being reopened are very slim at best.

I agree with Allan and James. Sam, before you put a trip up on the website I suggest that you contact the rangers for the area to ascertain that your proposed trip is possible.

Wont happen , the fires are still burning and I doubt anything will have changed before Easter as well so everyone should rethink their plans.

Thanks rick, I’ll wait until towards the end of the week and if nothing has changed then the trip will be cancelled. Cheers

Thanks Eddie, atm without new tyres and a winch all the hard trips that require experience and lift etc are out so my options are limited. No one seems to be posting trips I can do atm. But I am relentless in trying to get out there and learn what I can when I can find someone to go with

As I cannot find how to cancel a trip unless someone can tell me how? I will
Have to announce it here that you probably have already gathered that unfortunately the fires havent subsided so the trip will be postponed to a later date until it’s safe to do so. Cheers
