[QUOTE="ProspectorPete, post: 114610, member: 3820"] Hey thanks for that Hiluxlou and much appreciated mate, I'll definitely suss it out at some stage when I get a 3-4 day break. The 2 trips I've done up that way around Store Hut area have been short overnighters and it's just so hard to cram everything into such a short weekend. My intensions are to really get around to as many spots up that way as I can over the next 5 years to get to know the area better for prospecting trips in the more distant future when time allows for longer stays, it's just so bloody long to drive in with how tight some tracks are, 1.5hrs in 2nd gear to drive a few K's to get away from everyone else, the trip past the Dam is the easy bit, it's when you turn off the fun begins, I nearly ran off the tracks several times doing 20kph due to the amount of stuff to look at, would love to take long service leave and spend a month or two just poking about in them mountains as it appeals to me more than the GT, my love of mountains, streams, fishing and the bush means I could happily retire up there tomorrow if money allowed. In the meantime I'm looking at focusing on gaining some experience around the Latrobe Valley area as it's a lot closer and easy to do day trips in the area, I'll save Walhalla and to the north for when I can get 3 or more days away.
