  • SEQ (Now Trip Report)... 2nd Dec 07 D'Aguilar Range

    Hi guys... time for an SEQ day trip. Can't let the WA folk have all the fun
    I was thinking something more of a family day out... 4wding, BBQ, meet some of you fine folk

    The book describes the tour as 'easy to difficult' depending on weather. I have been up there once before and every challenging track had a chicken run around it (I used a few of those :wink: )
    Depending on how the day flows I was thinking of lunch/bbq possibly at the Gantry Day Use Area.


    Date - 02 Dec 07

    Location - D'Aguilar Range Tour (Dirty Weekends Book 4th Edition)
    meet by the Bakery, Dayboro (williams st)

    UHF - 15

    Time - 8:30am
    should finish in the arvo at Woodford and some are planning on leaving around mid day... most likely from the Gantry day use area

    Attendees - (all welcome)

    Snaga (90) (confirmed)
    Hutch (120) (confirmed)
    esie + jeff (confirmed)
    UberSarge (120) (confirmed)

    Here's a quick clip of a mate of mine on one of the in-land tracks... I was winched up (no time for track building or letting more air out... and Craig wanted to use his winch :twisted: ) as I kept getting hung up on a diagonal tree root about 2 3rds the way up ops: Hopefully with the lift and better tyres I'll have better luck next time

          I would love to make the trip but I have a family function on that weekend. I wouldn't be too popular if I didn't show up. If things change I will come if still able. KMK

            We were told by the park owner that 17-18 is the busier week as it's the start of school holiday. Apparently there were no other bookings for the 24-25 weekend. I want to test out my new suspension setup on my pootrol. It's got 4 inch lift with superior super flex radius arm. Superior claimed it gives 260mm of front end down travel.

              That would be something to watch :shock:

                  Why not do both

                  I'll see how things are time wise and will try to make that one as well.

                          Ha!! I was going to suggest changing it to the condamine incase anyone was heady to Kels run up Teewah.

                          I'm happy either way

                          McBain.... Doh!!
