Ngaroma - Before the Return

A top notch day on our first trip to Ngaroma with some interesting history, great views and many stories from our host Michael as we travelled the farms. 
The BBQ at the end of the day was a welcome wind down and refresh after a busy day. 
Thanks all.

Ngaroma: The Return

Mike invited us back to Ngaroma in April to have a further look around and try a few more tracks.
The weather was perfect and a few hardy souls camped at the wool shed (we're told no one fell through the holes in the floor) and Saturday saw another good turnout.



After a bit of a tour around the high points and some stunning views. . .


. . . Griff and Mike had a bit of a lash at a washed out culvert. . .


. . . with varying degrees of success.  Griff made it through after using about 8 litres of petrol, and Mike had a good go but couldn't quite spin the tractor tyres on his truck fast enough to get up the other side.




Eventually both needed help to get back, BUT


there was MUD!

Cracker day out on the paddocks and in the bush, with a great crew.  
Another top day.
