Hi all. Just returned from the high country.
Some of the tracks that are open as of yesterday are King Billy - a little rough but OK, Monument, Davies High Plain, Butcher Country, Zeka Spur - rough, Mount Wellington, Blue Rag Range, Basalt Knob - Good drive, Billy goat Bluff. All tracks are a bit slow going so allow plenty of time.
The track we came across as closed and was not on Vic Parks list is at the end of Castleburn Creek Track. The track off to the right towards the end I think its Black burn range track is open and an excellent drive.
Wonnangatta is overgrown and a bit dissappointing so we only stayed one night.
Talbotville camp ground is excellent and not overcrowded. Definetely worth a couple of nights.
The river crossing at Tom Groggin is high but passable as of 3.00pm yesterday 5th Jan 05 but may rise due to rain so walk it first as we did just to be safe and use a bonnet tarp.
Have a good trip if you are heading that way and I hope you see some brumbies as we did which topped off a great trip.
