"Son of a Bitch Spur track"

This track has seen a series of accidents over the years & is currently due for major repair work.
We have received advice from Ranger at Heyfield about
this track, as follows:

"For your information, the attached notice will be placed at either
end of Grimme Track at Bull Plain Road and at Blue Plain Track,
approx. 35km NNW of Licola at the eastern edge of the Alpine
National Park. The notice will remain in place until road
maintenance works take place later this summer."

"Grimme Track
The track ahead is technically difficult and should not be
attempted in adverse weather conditions.
Only fully equipped four wheel drive vehicles and skilled drivers
should proceed past this point.
I can vouch that it should be left alone in the wet as a member of my group rolled 3 times 50m over the side coming out of Grimme crk. Lucky to walk away.

We've done it twice now in 2004 and each time it's p***ed down rain. On the last trip the track was in an unbelievably bad state, but once you started, there was no going back (too late once you found out).

Fortunately the going up the other side is more rock than clay, so it just meant no backing off. Could hardly see at times the rain was so heavy.

We think it's an omen and not sure about a third time, unless it's guaranteed bone dry.
