  • Straight off the black top and we are into it, low range 4WD heading up Mount Margaret Track.
    It's just out from Licola in the Vic High Country, and it's a crackin 4WD track to begin with.
    This track is very steep and rocky all the way up to the heli pad.
    I have travelled many of the 4WD tracks in the Vic High Country.
    Like many of the 4WD tracks around the Vic High Country, they have stunning mountain views, steep 4WD tracks and river crossings. This trip had all of that and more.
    We spent a very cold night at high elevation in alpine snow country along Dingo Hill Track, and woke to a very cold and frosty morning.
    Nothing that a morning campfire and a hot cupa wouldn't fix to get us warmed up.
    After breakfast we packed up and headed off for the tight down hill switch backs on Dingo Hill Track.
    The drive down along Caledonia River Track was pretty easy going, compared to other 4WD trips I've done alone that track.
    The track climbs steeply up onto the Howitt High Plains. We had pretty good weather so the tracks were nice and dry.
    What a great trip across the Vic High Country.

    -7.8°C, nice. It's been over 20 years since I've gone camping in those sorts of temps. On those temps, I remember walking on grass sounded like walking on potato chips - very crunchy.

    Hi Guys, I know Tim is not going to say it and he never does in any of his videos but I'll say it for him. Like and subscribe his channel and get other mates on board. Tim creates great content and he should have a lot more subscribers. Watch the full ads if you can instead of skipping they are not that long. I know I have planned a few trips on the back of his videos and I've had a great time. Let's get behind Tim.

    Grew up in Glen Innes, NSW Northern Tablelands, just as cold. Can recall having to pee on my windscreen to clear the ice...

    At 5m4s I was waiting for you to do the old “Man From Snowy River” move and take the old Patrol down the mountain side. LOL!! Brilliant video as usual Batesy. You are Australia’s greatest Ambassador for the High Country. That move down the mountain side would certainly have cemented your fame mate. 🤣
