Some video of the Captain Fawcett track in Dwellingup yesterday.

Myself and another family head out to Dwellingup for a bit of a drive as my friends son is on "L" plates and is keen to rack up some K's in all sorts of driving conditions. Although I did this track a few months ago it was nice to do it in some wetter conditions. Although not too challenging its still a beautiful place to drive through. We pulled up and had a nice lunch then off to the river.

Very nice Kakadaz. Are you taking me there when I'm over in Jan?

I was most impressed how you got out and checked the depth of every hole but somehow managed to edit it out to make it look all seemless hahahaha

Nice Vid mate, a group of us went down there a few months back - like you said not too challenging but a great day out.

Trekky (1CB) can we go there or somewhere like there in Jan? Can we can we? Harder would be good too

Checking depth is going to be your job. Unfortunately there were 243,345 holes on route (seriously)

Yes, but don't forget it will be January so probably not a drop of water to see (other than the river)

Don't misunderstand, I don't check the depths, I rely on the lift, Coopers and amts custom bash plates. Failing that have auto activated floaties

River you say?

Yep, there is a river crossing that looks pretty good but I don't know where it is. The guys did it on the last WA PP run (that I missed)

That's a fun track! I was down there a few weeks ago but it wasn't as wet as when you were there. I particularly enjoyed the hole at 2:20 in the video
I'm going back down in a few weeks time to complete the entire track as we ran out of time and only made it 1/4 of the way. Hopefully it stays wet.

We only did 20-30ks of the total 105ks you can do. I would say the river crossing would have been further up the track.

Shout when you head back I'd like to Finnish it we started at the dawn creek end.

Upo the track or down river.

WE MUST DO AT LEAST THE CHALLENGING PART OF THIS TRACK and THE RIVER. (steps down from soap box and stops yelling)

It is embarrassing but being from SA we don't have any river crossings that I am aware of. I am yet to use my snorkel or FCB (funky car bra). Also the amts plates are yet to be scratched/dented/broken in.

I'm getting excited, only 10 weeks to go. Better take a heart pill

NO

The track is closed until early January. No one should go there until then. Lucky because I will be there then!
