Last Monday on the way back from the Numpties ranch we decided (again) to take the back road from Hanging Roack through Barry, Glenrock, Ellerston and out to Scone.
For anyone that is heading up that way its a very nice drive, provided the weather is OK, and you are in the Land Rover (or at least a 4WD).
There are 20 or so river crossings leading into Glenrock so the signs at Barry indicating 4WD only are probably worth heeding.

Gate - MR105 (note the RTA barrier on the ground at the washaway)

Near Glenrock
All up there is probably only 10-15km that would cause potential strife if you weren't in a 4WD mainly due to clearance issues
Then when we got near Muswellbrook on the way home we had to give way to this big bloke

Obviously they didn't have too far to travel as they would normally break them down for transport.
