wombat rainy cruise MEDIUM

wombat state forest, VIC
See more trips


Given its likely to rain tomorrow I'd like to drive somewhere that isn't particularly scary in the wet. Wombat has great tracks and great amenity, like the pub in Blackwood for the end of the day. ☺ The trails are great fun around here. There will be a bit or rock, a bit of slop, a bit of steep and a bit of Jeep. A couple of sections will be a challenge.

Hi Nathan,
It's not literally an explore, I just called it that. I've done the area about 30 times so I have a fair idea of our circuit. There won't be heaps of mud but it's kind of unavoidable in the wet forest. I'll change the name.

okay, I didn't actually mean what are we exploring for..... but just what sort of tracks are we doing?
agree that muds unavoidable, just want to know if we are doing tracks other then mud pits, such as a few hill climbs or something....
I know south of Ashbourne pretty well and its mostly mud pit, not sure what blackwood is like

Hi Adam, given your choice of 4by I'd say you'll be fine without a winch. See you in Bacchus.

Ok. Since we've got a few people now the trip will definitely go ahead. See you all in the morn. Please be fueled up and fed by the meeting time so we can head off straight away. Please give me a call or text if you cant make it.

Hey pal, I just got your message. I was well asleep by ten last night; I'm an old man. I'm leaving home in about 45, so I think it'll have to wait til next time. ☺ Are you having something done to yours? Thanks for the thought though.
