    Was pretty Busy up there on Sunday to Spook! Can Honestly Say it wasn't me and @northdude... Although can attest to the traffic, and it got bloody loud when the first offroader got through.. Didn't run into anybody roaring at us although thats really really scary - there were a few cars in the carpark? Spotted what I thought might be your hoof prints on the track as we came back down..

    Had a yarn to those (first offroaders - couple of young lads from Hamilton) at the top of the lookout track when they turned up and even louder later on when the train of 8 in two groups came up. (We were on our way out by this time as the noise was enough to break our Zen). We also had earlier waved to and headed up to intro intro ourselves to a couple camped up at the top of the hill between the intersection of Thompson and North South and 100 acres went and introduced ourselves. Sure enough they had already worked the 100 acres infront of us so it saved us a bit of time with that knowledge to them continuing to head up that way.

    Plus ran into another group of 3 Trampers when we were coming back from the Hut track first on the track wearing orange blaze which wasa really good idea and saw him a mile away.. by the sounds given the numbers of two leggeds (and nutters) up there a very good strategy.

    By this time it was bloody hot, running short of time and energy we headed back down. Man had a few moments where I thought I was going go flat on my arse tip toeing round those mud wallows the 4x4's cut into the track - your horses are more sure footed than me for sure!

    Sorry we didn't get a chance to drop in we were late (having had to travel a lot futher south than we were expecting at 5pm) but thanks again from Nothdude and myself for everything and I'll drop in with a beer or two for you next time I'm passing.
