Hi all! Spent Queen's Birthday weekend in the High Country and thought I would put some pictures up.
Left on Sat morning, met up with mates in Neerim South, and then drove on to Woods Point

Looked for campsites around Comet Flat (just south outside of Woods Point); it was pretty busy but once you head past the first main campsites there were a few good spots by the river. We found a great spot, big enough to fit 3-4 cars if you're not setting up too many tents.
The track continued past our campsite on the other side of the river, so we had a good view of the cars going past - it was basically a free 4WD show, heaps of nice trucks coming past with some awesome set ups :D

Sunday, drove into Jamieson for lunch, then up Jamieson-Licola Rd. Great views along the way! Got to Mt Skene summit. By this stage it was about 3:30 and the weather wasn't looking great so decided to look for firewood and a campsite before it got dark.
Couldn't find many good spots off Jamieson-Licola Rd, ended up staying off No. 16 track in a clearing - looks like it was a logging area once upon a time.

Monday was rainy, so packed up early and drove down to Licola. Bought some pies for breakfast from the general store :) and then drove around for a while looking for campsites accessible to 2WDs - planning Cup Weekend getaway for a bigger group.

Got home around 3 on Monday, cleaning/unpacking while watching old 4WD action DVDs to make it a bit less painful. The End!
