High Country Trip

Finally after 2 years of no four wheel driving, it finally happened. I met up with a couple of mates at Woods Point after work Friday night. That part of the trip took a little longer than I thought it would (like 3 1/2 hours). Any how we got set up and had the fire going with a couple of drinks at hand, and discussed what the plan was for the morning. The next morning we didn’t have to hike to far for our first challenge. The last time I tried this I had the Hilux and it just wasn’t up it. I was feeling quite nervous when tempting this, but that was not the case, put the front and rear lockers on and just cruised up in no time at all. From there we drove past Crows Hut and down to the cascades, which we found to be a popular destination, and also made our job of finding a camp site more difficult. Once again we got settled with a fire and drinks were soon in hand. The next day we had some sore heads and didn’t break camp until 12:00 pm. This days journey to the Jamison valley was awesome, we had all the seasons and conditions. It was a full on day. I even got bogged and Mr Mods got me out. With journey taking us up to Bluff hut were there was plenty of snow and couple of snow ball fights, and then down into the valley to another awesome camp site. This is where I farewelled the boys and headed home to a nice hot shower and my own bed. This was definitely one of the best trips I have done.
