Yes I did search and it would take years to read it all and get what I need. And then I wouldn't be sure if the info was out of date etc. So I will try this post. At about 6:30pm last night a comment "Why not Tassie". By 7:00 the ferry was booked. Half an hour later we had the house, pot plants and the cats looked after with a relative staying here. Is that quick or not!!! Intro ramble over.

We spent the evening until this morning looking at the stuff about the NW area of Tassie. We have done an extensive 2wd drive around the island a few years back. Now we want places to see and with tracks suitable for a 4WD solo and not into stuff like the Balfour Track but don't mind a challenge etc.Sandy Cape is out also. I lost a car in quicksand and don't want to again (50 years ago Army landrover SSHH Don't tell them) .

Car is a 100 series. No lockers but lifted a bit and suspension has been strengthened. We both know how to get the best out of the car. Winch and all the recovery gear. No towing Have a roof top tent and plenty of camping kit.

I have downloaded all the EO tracks and have a great link to the Arthur Pieman Conversation Area document and their recommended tracks. But open to any area at this stage.

I am not rushing planning and there is plenty of time. But the more info we can get now would be a benefit considering how short the drive is.

So any recommendations for 4WD tracks. Dates 24 Dec to 4 Jan. Only need a track name or a link. Don't want people to go to a great deal of trouble on our account.

Thanks in anticipation

Phil
