https://goo.gl/maps/kNdYnCFLmVdKNipi6Hi all,
Looking to organise a gathering trip at Dargo. This trip is great for those who love touring or just enjoy what our high country can offer. New members are all welcome.
It will be a rolling camp on Sat night meaning we will camp somewhere along the way.
This trip is rated as "Medium" due to usual Winter condition.
With the new restriction from 1st June, we will cap this trip up to 20 people (not cars) so if you are unable to join this time, there will be plenty of chance to join in the future.
I am planning to setup camp on Friday, and head off early morning on Sat, and return on Sunday afternoon.
It will be the start of school holiday so it will be busy in the area.
I will be meeting at BP in Officer at 12pm and head over there early. If anyone want to meet up with me, please be there at 12pm.
Note: To prepare for the river crossing, I highly recommend you have a snorkel fitted.
Requirement
- Electric Winch
- Recovery Gear
