    The experts always come out but haven’t done the same track. Tyler and MalaKAI made it! If you have the equipment you use it. On that note, it was lucky you had some help. Viewers should heed Tyler’s words. They were NOT prepared for the wind chill weather in that terrain. That said, the footage was priceless even though Kai expressed some displeasure. Lol. Great images taken by him too. Well done to both of you to endure those conditions for our viewing pleasure. Much better than those beer guzzling other guys! Cheers. 👍🏻🙏🏽🙏🏽😷😷🦘🦘

      Many years ago we camped at the base of the Barkley River Jeep track (I think it was snowing as well), but the track was way overgrown, so much so that even a Suzuki would have received some serious bush pinstripes. Unfortunately we didn't do the track as we had to leave and were also taking home a couple of very weary bushwalkers who had given up their mission.

      15PSI was tyre pressure, any lower on a track like this without bead locks and getting fairly risky of tearing tyres off beads

    To give you an idea of how beaten up the Barkly River track is, I used it a lot in my (then new) bog standard 1976 Nissan Patrol with Roadtrak Major tyres on highway pressures. I remember the only issues was wheel travel on the switchbacks. It went to hell once it got some publicity.

  • @aslkdfjhg
    @aslkdfjhg 2 года назад

    Mansfield/Jamieson is such a beautiful place to drive/hike. As a former local my advice for anybody doing it is to bring a paper 4wd map or off-road nav. Google maps will not tell you the terrain and not all tracks are suitable in wet conditions. Also , bring a beanie, and bring gloves. Believe me changing a tire on a track with freezing hands is not fun.
