    Unfortunately I'll be off camping with the crowds this weekend. I was there 2 weeks ago (That's where we were going Leon when you spotted us on the Gateway Bridge :lol: ) Nice drive. There wasn't a lot of water in the crossings. Deepest was about 400mm at the second crossing. Interesting watching the bikes get dropped it in the river and spend the next few hours draining the water out of the engine :cry: :cry: :cry: .

    Have a good trip.

                Robert,

                We completed the river crossing as suggested. We only had one prado in the convoy. The crossing were only ankle deep. Overall it was a good trip.

                        Thanks, Kelvin, to think that was full on in flood a month or two ago.

                          I agreed. I went through the crossing before christmas last year and at one the crossing the water was bonnet deep for a 2inch lift GU patrol. :shock: Fortunately all the vehicles have snorkel fitted.

                            Kel... great shots, looks like a great day away. Good to see the Delica's getting a good workout off road.
                            Cheers, Leon
