The first 4wd track of the trip

We woke up to a verrrry grumpy boy today, neither of us are morning people/dogs, and he made sure we knew that today. He perked right up once he had his chicken luckily. We got organised and popped over to the bakery for breaky rolls since we'll be on 4wd tracks all day. We headed for Porepunkah, the town the tracks start from. The golden spur track followed the powerlines to the summit, before continuing on another track. Once pup realised what we were doing, he settled in. We did a big loop from one of the 4wd books we've been given, lots of twists and turns, beautiful outlooks. I did stuff up and we missed a turn, in my defence it was at a 5 way dirt intersection and Ben had a quick look too. Where we'd planned to stop to have a feed was just inside the national park borders, so we had to keep going for a bit. We got to the end of the Buffalo Range track, at an intersection before the Twins Jeep track, which we did 7 years ago, unintentionally because of a massive tree down where we actually wanted to go. I hated that track so much, but he we were. There was a big clearing and Ben said we stopped here for a feed last time too, so we made ourselves some wraps, pup stretched his legs and we were back in the ute for the awful twins track. We remember it being super narrow, sheer drop off's and just yuck. Now, maybe because we've done a lot more tracks since then, it wasn't as bad as we remembered. It was still narrow and the drop off's were scary, but it wasn't as nervewracking as last time, and we're in a wider car this time. The end of the track was on the Great Alpine Road, at an intersection for our next track.En savoir plus
