A mate and i are talking about doing the guineacore fire trail between taralga and
wombeyan caves.
Just wondering if anyone has done it decently and if the
gate at the
wombeyan caves end is locked or open..

That the
gate right at the
bridge at Goodmans Ford?
Never seen it unlocked. Got a wonderful set of padlocks on it belonging to various
services who do have access.

Ben,
Just looking at 50k maps of the area (admittedly old) and satellite maps on OziExplorer, that track seems to stop on private property at a house. On the the fully zoomed satellite images I can see no evidence of a track going any further northeast toward
Wombeyan Caves.
Coming the other way from
Wombeyan Caves there is a track that heads off in the right direction to the SW, but in the satellite images at full zoom it seems to terminate at an escarpment about 1km northeast of the aforementioned house. To me it appears you can't drive right through.
Cheers
Guineacore to Wombeyan

Ok, it must be dooable, just not apparent in the satellite images.
If you get through a report would be appreciated - I for one would like to have a look at some time.
Cheers
