Just back from a great weekend camping / 4wding.
Convoy of 5 vehicles arrived in Batemans Bay friday, set up camp and actually ventured to Catalina Country Club for dinner, few beers (nothing exotic) and a t-bone.
Saturday rendevous with another 2 vehicles and headed south to Mourya then onto a fire trail heading into Bendethera Valley.
The tracks were no where as difficult as last time we'd ventured into this region, river crossings were running low levels and again all trails were dusty not muddy as last time.
Set up camp and got the fire going, opened up some HB's to share around to the fella's, all were impressed with the taste and we went through them quickly. On to dinner of cobb cooker pizza, steak sangas and some overproof red rum.
Sunday packed up and made the journey via Merricumbene fire trial out of the valley, two of the hillclimbs were rather entertaining but all made it up and through, onto Araluen Rd, to Braidwood, Goulburn, Moss Vale then home via Maquarie Pass.
Good Camping Trip, didnt get wet, truck didnt break down, new mud terrains worked very well, HB was a success.
