Well, just got
home.
1) bleep it was cold... Puddles were frozen and some small dams had 2inch layer of ice on them!
2) see 1..
3) They have ruined Craigs Hut. simple as that.
I dont care what any of you "oh its delightful and spiffy, pass me a latte" people think...
... but after seeing first hand the nightmare that is now the "CARPARK", I wont bother going back to it, it was just out of control.. Dozens turned up at same time, which had some actually
parking on the garden/center part whre your supposed to go around! Theres just no room once people park around the edges, for cars to get past each other! GENIUS INC (the parks)
VIEWING PLATFORMS? WTF4? Ahhhhh thats where picnic tables will go...
4) bleep it was cold...
5) there will be a boomgate there by this time next yr charging entry to craigs.
6) talkin to members of CFA club that were the actual blokes that helped rebuild
the hut yrs back, they too said they will never be back now that you can get a 2wd up there. "time to find another hut in the middle of nowhere and start there"....
7) fuk it was cold. -5 this morning at Pineapple Flat.. Tents were frozen, everyones billy/cans/tubs that were left out for minutes FROZE! never been cold in the HC before, but this was different... even the wash from cars going thru the creeks froze!
8) Couldnt believe people leavin campsites burning at end of weekend STILL! one was better than our fire the night before, and not a soul around...
9) Thought I was on drugs, came aross a TEEPEE up near Lovicks Hut remains on the
hill... couldnt believe my eyes!
.. plenty of tracks CLOSED on FRIDAY! NONE mentioned on the parks site.
Still good to be out and about - last trip for the GQ
