Moondogs Snow Trip 2016
Posted: Sun 03 Jul, 2016 9:25 am
Leaving packing until the last minute combined with some last minute clothing shopping and trying to finish a dividing fence, buying a Sim card for the loaned phone and rejoicing in what is going to be [ probably] a hung parliament and a definite swing against the old government and finishing the Knight in Shiny Armour costume for the 4YOs birthday.
Adding in to the load are a couple of new nylon/polyester tarps and a cheap [ $10-] tent I bought at the Recycle centre; yes another experiment; and the shovels and block splitter I left in the ute and brought all the way back home by mistake and ditto the bag of spare tent pole sections.
I didn't make up the Paris sled and I'm using train of 2 or 3 much smaller LW sleds instead.
I've had a full 6 months to do it all and I'm really only 90% organised but that really only means one extra trip from Windy corner to the camp site.
I have to make 2 stops on the drive up, the first to drop off my old canvas tent at Evans factory and one in Wodonga to pick up my new skis.
I'll fill the ute with fuel, pack it later today and hopefully be on the road early enough to miss the worst on the Western Car-Park
