Is this where you are heading to aswell? I've never been to this area before, have you? We are leaving Saturday morning.

In the area but starting point will be more to the NNE aproximately 2/3 of the way between Benambra and Corryong Whereas you are heading a rough NWW to the start of the Murray. Always get up to date info from Parks and I think Towong Shire has a very good map of the area and Up to date info of track conditions of the area
In my youth, in my bushwalking days, I have stood at the source of the Murray with one foot on one bank and the other one on the other, bit of walk in, take good gear in and food just in case the weather turns against you . Rooftop maps have a good one for the area . We are heading up there for the Easter, you could do it in 3 but it will be a bit rushed . The long weekend coming up we The Gippsland crew , 8 vehicles are heading up through Huggetts crossing-the Pinnacles-Billy Goats Track- Talbotville- Wonnagatta Valley out Zeka spur And into the Butcher Country .
