    My favorite 4wd channel, I look forward to every release. Tyler is a natural with a great personality. The young bloke and Tylers old man add to the charm. Im an old bloke whos best 4wd days are behind me but Tylers filming and commentary make it as if you were there.

    Beautiful filming! Looks like a fantastic trip! FYI, you shouldn’t need alpine diesel unless it gets below about -10. If your fuel ever did freeze in the tank, I know they take a couple of embers from the fire and leave them under the tank for a while in Europe...

    Interestingly I live in Victoria and go to the snow every year (the last ten years). My car is up there in the snow for about 4 days, I do the alpine fuel but I've never heard of the hand brake trick. Never had an issue with the hand brake even when the car has 30cm of snow all over it

    Shame we didn't see how the built tough MUX coped on Billy Goats... I bent a steering arm on it a week ago with the track chewed out from the Christmas crowd... Junction Spur Track as an alternate is also a good drive to the pinnacles. Next time your near Licola hit Burgoyne (after the Macalister). Ungraded, it's a pants changer.

    Tyler, another great effort. Something you mentioned in here that I hadn't thought of before, doing all that walking to set up and retrieve you camera, would be very hard if you were on a busy track. You would be interfering with other drivers etc. and that wouldn't be too good. But man !!! you sure do some walking !

    Hi Tyler thank you for taking us on this trip. I too use HEMA maps on the iPad, and have pin pointed the tracks and points you mention. By doing this I should literally be able to follow in your tracks. I am interested in what your thoughts of the tracks marked “D” or “X” to how difficult they are? Since you use HEMA maps have you thought of adding a map download to your post. Thanks for the inspiration to get out there!
