Nice to meet you tony and your wifeThat was an awesome trip, a great overnight camp and yet again I've learned stuff.
Most of all I learned to trust my instincts. I was talking to Mike on what looked like an impossible hill climb and said I can't see how a Navara would climb up - he said you just trust your truck and it goes. Sure enough, car after car, they came up - and I've got HD video footage of it. Yes Nevyn - including your climb too.
Where I learned to trust my instincts was after we were separated from the group. I wanted to get towards the campground and was advised to take a side road that would lead me to a main, smoother road and down to the sealed road. Sure enough it led us to the sealed road - but it was anything but smooth! There were some REALLY hairy moments - I am NOT an experienced off-roader at all - so when I was faced with a half-metre drop I didn't know what I could do. The half-metre deep rut was similarly disconcerting - but taking it slowly, we did it.
Both side steps are damaged now - the left one was hit at the Muster, got hit again this weekend and banged the right side as well. My paintwork has more battle scars than Judge Dredd and I can confirm that those big GME UHF antennae will bend right back almost to the bonnet.
I'll also confirm that the Tough Toys awning is a pretty good piece of kit. Here's a couple of shots:

Thanks to everyone who came, helped, organised, led, instructed, uplifted and/or enjoyed. It was a thoroughly enjoyed event.
Link works for me mate - all goodHas anyone has a chance to see if the link is working with the photos??
