Am looking for Water crossings close to Melboune. Took family to Telangi last weekend and sloshed through heaps of mud - couldn't find water. Did a course some time ago and went across river up that way - do you think I can find it now! I couldn't even find the national park!! Do you think I'm past help - perhaps GPS is the only answer for me. My attitude is don't ask - never know - fool for a minute or fool for a life time I say.

Theres a drought on, not much water around..
You can try
Coopers Creek Walhalla.. and out of
Woods Point theres a few, but none are deep at the moment.

This is it when it was shallow, but it wouldnt be this deep now, it was over the bonnet of the lifted GQ at its peak

Martyn, same as a URL but insert IMG instead of URL
[] with IMG in the middle
then the URL of the image
and then [] with /IMG in the middle
all on one line no spaces
something like this below with the IMG's inserted in the brackets.

Ahh that's nothing. Remember the guy that tried doing the crossing to Tassie in a Vee Dub????? The Nissan should handle Q'
cliff with ease.
