Trip Description:
This trip is categorised as medium/hard so it is required to have minimum 32 s M/T or aggressive A/T tyres and a working electric winch .
BYO Recovery gear is MANDATORY
We will aim to finish by 6pm
We will be stopping for lunch so BYO food and water. I will be firing up my portable cooker and doing some grilling, so the lunch will be around 30 minutes...
All Trip Participants, including passengers, must wear fully enclosed footwear (e.g. sneakers, work type boots) whilst on this Trip.

Recovery Equipment:
The minimum requirement is one Snatch Strap, 2 Bow Shackles rated, a Dampener and Riggers Gloves (a full recovery kit is preferable and more appropriate, but not ssential). Riggers Gloves must be worn when dealing with recovery equipment or for track clearing if encountered. Equipment must be in very good condition.. If you don't have this recovery equipment do not join!!

VEHICLE & EQUIPMENT:
Your vehicle must be Roadworthy and appropriately set up for the trip (if you know of any mechanical or maintenance issues with your vehicle, you must have these fully resolved/rectified before the Trip). You will need ground clearance for the harder Tracks, therefore a suspension lift of at least 2 inches is strongly advised to avoid vehicle damage. Appropriate or Acceptable front and rear recovery points, for snatch strapping or winching, are essential.

Some tracks on the list to go to from https://4x4fever.com/bunyip-state-forest/
Andersons Track (-37.935871, 145.678452)

Hardest track in Bunyip – by a mile. It’s passable with all terrains and no lift in the dry summer, add a bit of water to the mix and I’ve watched doubled locked, lifted patrols with 35inch + rubber struggle to get 100 meters up.

Little Bunyip Track (-37.934586, 145.672867)

This can get a little challenging in the wet, but a fun track. If you’ve got road rubber, you might struggle, but one to check out if you are in the area.
