It all started out simple enough.
All started out well with some easy driving. Then we turned down a side track (which was the one to follow according to the Dirty Weekends book) and it started to get interesting. The recent rains has played havoc with this section of the track and it was full of big landslides and many trees across the road.
Here is the first lindslide we came across.
Steve got past OK, and I snuck through with my larger track. The next obsticle was the rootball of a fallen tree.
We both squeezed through that.
We then came across some trees fallen across the track and we had to go over them. It was mud either side of the logs and it was wet and boggy. We had to do a heap of road building with rocks to get over it.
Then we came across a few more landslides and more fallen trees. One fallen tree has been cut of a bit, but we had to almost hang our cars over the edge of a wicked cliff (created after a landslide). Then we had a downhill section with huge washouts all along it.
It ended up taking us a couple of hours to get through this section. We were glad to get to the bitumen. Didn't fancy having to turn around and go back through it all again.
