Hi to all,

I would like some guidance and tips if you can regarding the necessary knowledge for undertaking a track for the fist time. I have drove Hilux's in the UK and had fun on old mining slag heaps and fields etc but nothing as serious or as remote as the Aussie landscape.

I live in Perth and would be looking for something easy to tackle at first and take my apprenticeship from there. I have just bought a 2001 troopy to take the family and friends out for days and breaks, and would be looking for 'localish' tracks, the big journey's will come eventually.

I need to know about reporting to rangers of my whereabouts or whoever i need to tell, permits, good 4wd clubs in south perth or any reasonably priced training courses, the ability of my vehicle, and any other tips regarding jacks, winches, or anything. I'm new to this and willing to listen and learn from anybody with decent advice.

Regards

Dean
