Just thought id post this up for everyone to see. I went for a day trip today with some mates to find some snow. We all met up at Bruthen about 10am than headed off. First stop was Moscow Villa hut out of Ensay where we met another mate. Ill say now what a great spot to camp! Pity i didnt camp there though. Started to see a little snow just past the hut. From there we headed to Bindi to see some sights than to Swifts Creek for a stop and toilet brake. From there up the cassilis rd and had a look at mad Lucys hut. Now from here is where the real fun begin. The climb up to Mount Berrigan was pretty slipperys and steep in places. And there was plenty of snow on top. After taking a short cut where there would be more snow turned out a slow 1 as we had to cut a few trees off the track. Off the Dogs grave next for a late bbq lunch. Than to the Dargo pub and from there off home. Got home about 6pm so was a good day tip. Sorry about the ramble guys. But i had a ball and so did everyone else. Some really great sights and spots not so much 4wding but still good none the less. Ill post up some photos tomorrow for all to see
 
Oh ill also add the trip can be done in a stock car so all the more reason for you all to get out there and enjoy the country. We had a great wall 4x4 with road tyres with us and it made it. Had a little trouble up the wet hills but it got by none the less
 
Pictures!

Heres a few pics from near Moscow Villa they are of a pulley system used to snig logs from the bush to get cut up i think. Was pretty interesting
