G'day
Just returned from a great day's trecking through the Toolangi State Forest.

Trip organised by Robin included his lovely wife Ann, Tony, my wife and I.

Started at Glenburn Roadhouse with great coffee as promised, and a chat, then off
for a drive through the State Forest.

Perfect way to spend the day and hope to do it all again soon.

Hi Guys

Good to meet some new faces , on a perfect day in the bush.

Haven't gone thru photo's yet , but video of us going thru the hole , where you guys were directing me came up quite well in showing how cars handled it.

Am constantly surprized at the usefulness of little camera's now that they have VGA resolution , although at 198mb a minute the files a little unwieldy.

This simple trip had a bit of everthing.

After coffee at Glenburn our trip began with Two hills rd , and up Pine track where we lowered tyre pressures and chain sawed a long but narrow tree as we entered an extensive area of back burned forrest on out way to the lovely ferntree lined crossing of Kalatha crk on Martins track and continued around to Marginal rd.

We went down Marginal and pulled up at Luke creek , and just waltzed into a good fire right next to creek which only needed a kick , and lthen lazed under warm filtered sunlight.

After lunch we headed up Luke creek to take the rocky track shortcut up to the start of dowines spur - it wasn't a shortcut though with me spending several mintues getting the car right with your directions because of the side slope coming out of a short bypass.

A bit of wheelspin and fun for all followed and the trip continued by looping back to Marginal rd via the impressive temperate rain forrest along Luke crk rd.

Said goodbye and pumped up tyres - lovely easy and unpressured day - we will do again some time.

Thanks to you all for coming

Gday
Just as a matter of interest, Robin"s wife Ann wouldn't let Tony and I tip his vehicle on it's side to get some better shots with the camera.

Just found out from friend of friends friend, that up that track with the lean on it a bit further , is where the 2 suzies came from , and a new GU patrol tried to follow them down but chute was to narrow , and hit most panels on both sides of car - E.T.D. $8000 - so its good to listen to the missus some times.
