Hey there people, Queens Birthday long weekend has come and been. As usual I went 4wd and had a ball, we started at Crowes Hut and headed east to the bottom of the butcher track, which I might add was an awesome little trip with heaps of cool scenery. I will be putting pictures up soon (as soon as I find my camera … Its in the Hilux … somewhere !?!?). We set up camp and pulled down a dead tree and had a massive fire which we also used to cook up some mean grub. I had a steak sandwich and it was bloody beautiful. The next day we packed up and headed up to the butcher track. Now after doing this track I know why they call it that. Towards the top the weather changed so not only did we have a mean track ahead off us we had rain and snow. I was getting a little worried because after 10 – 15 mins of this the tracks were becoming very slippery and I’ve only done a few tracks. About 30 hour on the tracks become rivers and looked very cool, but probably wouldn’t have been if I had of broken down. At the top the weather just got worse and I pulled the pin. The other two blokes stayed to camp in the snow but I was worried that we we’re going to be snowed in and wouldn’t be able to get off the mountain the next day, so I headed off that night and did a bit of a night mission which was fun but visibility in the snow at night was quite a different adventure of its own. Over all It was an awesome trip and would do it again, now looking forward to our next trip.
