No plan yet for the Labour Day weekend but I'm itching to get out, preferably somewhere high. It's been so dry though that I'm thinking a few options could be off the table (unless there's good rain in the next 2 weeks). Thoughts?
I've got something on in Melb on Friday night, so without the option of driving up Friday night, one of the closer alpine options is preferable.
- The Crinoline. Likely to be dry as a chip I think. Anyone disagree? Those waterholes on the way down from Mt Tamboritha looked pretty permanent when I was there in Jan 2017 but but maybe not.
- Something in The Bluff vicinity. Reckon the 4WDers will have drained the tank at Bluff Hut over summer? Any other reliable water around there?
- Baw Baw. I guess this would be just one night so could carry water if none available. But I'd rather a 2 nighter.
- North Prom. No, it's not the mountains but I'd like to do it again... Surely too dry. Even the southern prom was fairly dry at New Years.
- Tali Karng. I haven't done the "up the river" route. I guess that's a safe bet for water! Not really a 2 nighter though is it?
Cheers.
