Better go for a drive there soon Bonz. I have been told there are some, but I have not found any yet. All easy that I have been on. I will have to do a development on Grampians DSE ones or CFA.

Converted the maps overnight. Mt Cole included, It depends as to which government division gets the allocation. Forestry or C&E, remebering how Wombat Forest management group were trying to change things and close down even camps in the forest.

It was just before that I became an EO member and met fellow activists at Daylesford. We had met a few EO Members at Firth Park, Mr & Mrs Al, Rock Crawler, Baz (Red Back) Member John (Vic). There were som others too. Geez it was cold those nights.

No worries Bonz, I didn't realise this feedback became a forum thread, I was just adding to the Trek feedback. But it was a great display of flowers earlier this week. Easy drive but very pleasant. Hit a roo on the way home through the Big Desert though.Image Could Not Be Found

yeah did that track several years ago fairly tame but picturesque.
unfortunately for most its a walkers paradise.
many closed locked gates that only open for fire acess.
check out mt abrubt walk or mt difficult.
great area.

Mt Abrupt and Mt Difficult are two excellent walks.

Mt Difficult I have done a couple of times, once just up and back from troopers, the second time as a circuit starting at Briggs Bluff carpark up Briggs Bluff then on to Mt. Difficult and down to troopers completing the circuit with a hike along the road back to the carpark.
