Plans

I'm driving pretty much past on the way to Liconla, so I'll have a go. Google says there's a road almost to to the hashpoint.


Expedition

Short version

google lied... ok... so technically there's a road, but it was made of mud and slopingness and overgrowingness.

decided to walk the last Km instead and got very wet and muddy and had no GPS reception in the trees and clouds and rain and dark.

Eventually gave up when i got to a 45 Degree slope covered in wet ferns, and it was obvious i would never get a good fix on the hash point.

Managed to walk Directly back to the car though... I wasn't lost (although it could have been managed pretty easily), just couldn't determine where I needed to go.

Camped in the Car at Licola over night, then had an annoying drive back to melbourne the next day.
