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.

Hashing
The road became interesting.
That road was stupid.
This road was less stupid, or would have been if it was dry.
Not the Hash.
Wet and muddy.
Licola and the journey Home
"Beware Falling Rocks".
Sleepy cave.
Sleepy cave from the outside. (in the morning)
The Wellington River. Not for crossing today.
Not a bad spot to park.
Licola
Paddocks and scenery.
Regrowth
Most of the way down the hill is like this.
Ominous.
Yup... it was ominous.
