border track

we had done it in september last year and some of the holes had been filled but i heard something about bypassing the dunes with easy tracks !!

Was talking to Ray about it last night, apparently its the new Hume Hwy now.. Next step will be tar and cats eyes, and a BP Eat and Go.

About as challanging as getting out of a shopping center.

Personally I think its disgraceful, but its one more way to bleep on 4wds, make it so 2wds can go everywhere.

I'd be interested to hear.

Thats a shame. That big mother dune was the best part. They've probably done more damage with the dozer than 4wds could ever do.Hooroo

I rang parks and wildlife and they have bypassed 5 dunes for revegitation purposes because the tops of the dunes are blowing away and bypassed part of the track where the bog holes are because of the rain has filled them up and if people may drive in them and not realise how deep they are and if the car stops they may not be able to open the doors to exit vehicle !!
The track will be open soon and most holes may be filled in though.
There is no highway that part is bull bleep !!!!
Thanks for the replies

Just remember Simon, you couldn't see what the problem was going down there in the wet and deliberately "carving" the place up. This is what happens when some irresponsible people have "fun" when it is wet. They close it down. Not having a personal attack at you, just pointing out a few points.

But Peter they havnt closed it down.
They have built a highway through there.
Everybody whinges about enviromental vandalism except when the National Parks do it.

They have singlehandedly done more damage to that area than a 1000 fools in 4x4s could ever do.

Why is there an existing track there that cant be used?

How can someone driveing over a sandhill do any more damage than whats already been done by their bulldozer?

It seems to me that someone in charge of the Parks is ill informed and out of touch with reality.
Where a lot of the bogholes are is adjacent farmland anyway so if the CFS wanted access wouldnt you think theyed use a cleard paddock?

Im guessing you rang parks and wildlife xr500?

Simon. wherever did you get that idea fromHooroo

simon
they still need a track to maintain the fence and possibly for spot fires !!
i dont think they would fight a large fire when there is no threat to homes and lives
