Hi All,

I can't post into the trip reports section as I am not currently a member so I am posting this up here. If a Mod could add it to the trip report it would be great. We had a great weekend with great company and enjoyed the trip up to Kroombit Tops (we had been there before but not from the direction we came). Just to make everybody happy we did catch a couple of fish in the dam.

Photos of the weekend including some from the dam and the walks we did after everybody else had left are posted up here Cania Gorge album | TimJ | Fotki.com (http://public.fotki.com/TimJ4blue/cania-gorge-/) for anyone to view. Anybody have any questions about where any of the photos are let me know.

Tim.

Very nice photo's mate, looks like a top weekend was had by all!

[Outlaw]

Brilliant trip to be had by the looks of it... very jealous my fender wasn't ready to go... guess we'll have to do a similar one again another time.

So out of those who attended... how was the drive, distance time etc??? Suitable for similar 3 day adventures?

Thanks for taking over Caroline & Harry... was very much appreciated :D:D:D:D

The route I took takes longer than going straight up the bitumen.....but who likes to drive in bitumen. The trip up to Kroombit Tops took all day and we had no time to go to the dam.....4 days would be better if including Kroombit Tops tour.

You'r welcome:D

What's the yellow rig? Is that a Forward control (101)? Looks pretty wild - as does crump's wicked Fender. :TakeABow:

Will really try to make the next similar trip - thanks for the pics. :)

[Outlaw]

Take it you haven't had a chance to meet Cooee (Andrew) and Thumper his 101 then Dan :D:D:D

We had a great weekend half the fun was following the Ho Hars up all the dirt roads just getting to the caravan park at the gorge. The next day Crump met us at the caravan park in the morning and we all set off for a easy 4WD trip to "beautiful betsy" crash site. Then went back to the caravan park. The next day we packed up and went home. It would have been nice to spend more time there and if we did we would have caught a bigger fish than Timj. It was a real treat to see cooee's FORWARD CONTROL in action. It was great to meet more Landrover Owners and spend time with them.
