Hi all,
We're off to the Cape on Sept. 12 fopr 4 weeks. Our group of 4 fourbys (1 Disco, 2 Pajeros, 1 Triton) has a rough itinerary planned but none of us have been there before. Been studying the guide books etc. Would anyone like to comment on the following:

1. Places which must NOT be missed
2. Places not worth the trouble of getting there.
3. Things to be careful about.

All advice would be gratefully received.
Thanks in advance...

Chilli beach if the wind is not howling. You get cross the Pascoe river which can be fun. Mud one side the other rocks with a few in the channel.
Enjoy.

Must Do's IMHO...

Wakooka Track (Red Point, ninian, melville bathurst)

A lakefield lagoon (Mickfienn, 7mile, Jacks Lakes etc etc)

A beer n pie at Musgrave

Archer River camping on the riverbed

Frenchmans into IronRange, walking in the forest.

The falls, if you have the time lilo from twin down to fruitbat (need a car shuffle)

West Coast wanderings - north or south in from Viryla Pt

Somerset
