Weekend Mischief
Another permit on the white Maverick/Patrol meant more fun in the wild Brindies. Also was a good chance to test out my new camera. Its a Samsung WB650 with built in GPS which geotags the photos which is cool. Iam yet to find a cool way to incorporate that into the blog but shouldnt be hard. Anyway I am feeling pretty lazy to write too much in here about the trip out and will let the pictures/videos do most of the talking. But essentially the mighty Mav, Big Red and the lil Suzi went out to see how many times we could get stuck or how many pointless hills we could climb…i lost count.
Anyway the story in pictures…

Snow Drive
It was Wednesday, it had been raining all day and was very cold. Normally you would stay indoors in the warth…not us. This was another opportunity to head up into the mountains to have a play in the snow. Again we headed to our ussual meeting spot before heading off into the dark cold Brindies. The mavericks thermostat is a little (read alot) on the cold side and therefore the engine has trouble warming up and defrosting the front window fully, so this was just another obstacle that needed overcoming. Once we were on the dirt track up to Mt Ginini the snow presented itself quickly and provided alot of fun in 2WD.
Heres the photos i took:

God Damn Trees
Well Saturday brought about another cold day to go 4wding. We all made our way to the ussual meeting spot in Weston where we departed for the Brindies. Once in the Brindies we found some trails and went a muck in the mud. Most of the tracks were very slippery which was good fun. All in all a great day, many times people got stuck or slip off the track or needing to snatched up the side of a hill myself included. Not as many photos this time as was too busy having fun.
These pictures are courtesy of Graeme and his leet photography skills.
And these Photos are of me finding a tree on the other side of an obsticle. You can see the video HERE
