I even gave my VLF a quick run on some 'hot ground' - very quiet. a bit of water around in the creeks and the dams are starting to look good. However, because of some fire-track/access work, what were 2WD tracks are now 4WD only - the graders have done a pretty el-crapo job. Some tracks also have some pretty reasonable dead-fall as well. It has been worth taking a chain-saw to clear some of the tracks.
Thanks Loamer, the hilux goes just about anywhere without too much trouble, good muddies help More concerned about getting the 5k wet and having to sit in a pub somewhere watching rain..........I can do that at home haha!
