Well no one available so went solo and checked it all out would be ok for a small group night run but all fairly easy as no one knows where it is and the tracks are not rutted out just getting a bit over grown with lantarna.
A few tracks link up and there is two good hill climbes but most run to over grown tracks and you have to turn around.
The area needs Rangers to do a controlled burn through there and it would be great.
All in all a good day out fun driving no hassels and plenty of wildlife around.

Sounds like you might have found the night run we have all been wanting.

Good work.

Sorry I couldn’t make it but I’m tied up till Christmas.

Cheers.

Next destination of exploration is Canungra I already know where there are some tough tracks Hard - G4.
But on the Topographic Map it shows more tracks than Numinbar Valley.
I will have to converse with the GCLRO Club Trip Organiser for this drive due to difficulty and will post a date and time as soon as the club Calender permits.
