May 20th

After a slow start and leaving our camp at Yarram, we headed up into the hills, it wasn’t long before we stopped for a cuppa at Minneha ‘ha falls. We had stopped earlier at crossroads, as we weren’t sure which track to take. A nice, very hard to understand, man pulled up, gave us directions , then drove ahead guiding us through some of the difficult areas. He happened to live opposite the falls.

We had our cuppa, then a look around, however it was very wet and slippery under foot. Chris with his Aussie boots on headed up a bit of a hill, I decided to wait for a slip up on his way down. But no, all I got was this rather amusing shot of him holding his tracky pants up as he picked his way back down.

The roads that we travelled were one lane, muddy, slippery and used by log trucks. We had to call up every kilometer to let the truckies know where we were. We used 4 wheel drive most of the day and the Grand Ridge road is not recommended for caravans or vehicles over 8 mtrs. Chris’s thoughts on this ,were if log trucks use them , then we could .!





The valleys and hills are spectacular as we made our way off the ridge .



Our stop for that night was in the small town of Boolara.
