    Trip up North

    Due to my old comp dying I could not post any pics of trips we have done.
    A group of us 5 4x4's did a trip up and around the north April 2025 got as far up as Mt Magnet but with a fair bit happening all around different abandoned stations.
    This is where due to economic or family the ppl walked off the land and allot of the buildings are like time capsules to the past.

    We have a modest set up with a roof top tent mounted on the rear of our ute stowing the rest of the gear under the frame it sits on.
    A normal load for this trip was, 60L spare diesel, 70L potable water, 48 x 500ml water bottles, 12 days worth of foods & snacks, 4.5L diesel or 7L petrol starter pack, spare serpentine belt, spare coolant/oil, compressor, tyre repair plugs, tools, 80ch 2 way, hand held GPS, GPS alert locator, shovels, flares, various fuses-bolts-electrical stuff, cooking gear & fridge/freezer. (Have to acquire coolant hoses for the next trip)

    So these are just a few pics of sunsets and sunrises (Windmill pic is a sunrise event)
    We covered 2888 klm over 8 days with 2 rest days in those 8.
    That seam of quartz through the rock formation was really weird to see anyway will post a few more when I get all them downloaded onto this new computer.
