    Hi Andrew,

    Camping is different talk, requires a little more preparation compare to day trips. If you have a time and interest in day run let me know, I'm planning before the end of the wet season go to check Rocklands tracks conditions.

    Cheers,
    Ruslan
    Hi Ruslan,
    Yep thats ok, Im all for day trips etc but the way I see is if we travel for a few hours to get somewhere I much rather make it worth while and take the camper trailer.

    But having said that if you are still planning something let us know, Im sure a few good mates (good blokes, no BS) will come along too, but best not make it a Hamilton Club run as there is one Nissan owner who is a real Goose (******).....so let us know mate

    Hi Andrew,

    I see him time to time, it seems he lives near Blue Lake. Don't know owner, I'm not so brave simply to knock a door "Hi, you own landy, me too,.. lets make a friendship"

    Also short white lifted troopcarier (was going to say 90 troopy saw several times on the driveway.

    Never've seen them dirty or/and loaded for camping, so don't think owner interested in that sort of staff. But if I'll get a chance to meet him, I'll ask

    Andrew,

    Here is some pics from our last trip. Thanks to Sandtoyz for sharing them.


    Pink sand does the job, Landy tractionally disadvantaged





    We couldn't go further, so decided to turn back and run away one by one:




    Kept telling to my Landy "Don't slow down, mate"




    Suction made recovery very difficult:




    Triple snatching was the way to go:



    Cheers,
    Ruslan

    That weekend my wife is going to Adelaide, I stay home with kids. Sundays after 16/09 and 23/09 I do club trips.

    Andrew, I'd be interested to see your club calendar, might be I'd join to some of your club trips... if I'm allowed to
