Thats okay, went home via bunyip and did a couple of the easier tracks then met up with a couple of guys out there and attempted Andersons but none of us could get to the top. Very muddy. Cheers David.

Well, we headed off today for Bunyip Forest. Met up with Lloyd and his brother Bryce at BP Longwarry and headed out for Robertson Creek Tk. Airing down at the motorbike unloading area, we met 3 members of the Pajero Club who tagged along with us.
We headed up the easy part of the track with no issues. At the tricky rocky part just past Rocky Tk, I headed up first to test the water. The Pathy went well until a big boulder that was much more exposed than last time I was up here, tried hard to get in the car with me via the drivers side sill. The sill I have just had repaired a week ago, yeah that's the one. The boys did well trying to guide me around it but it ended up damaging my sill again. I finally got over the obstacle, but nobody else wanted to risk it, so I turned around and we headed down Rocky Tk.
The recent downpour of rain last weekend has exposed many of the rocky sections.
With my damaged sill and tail between my legs, I headed home for the day and left the boys with the Pajeros
Thanks for meeting up with me guys, catch up soon.

Nick

Lloyd

Did your bro get any video or pics of my Pathy on this trip? I would be keen to see any footage he has. Especially the video he took of me coming up this track.

PM me for my email address.

Nick
