      Sounds fun, Rin. Glad to bring back a memory. I like water crossings too. When they are too deep its not worth risking....maybe I need a real boat?🙃

    A lot of history in that area. This is a region of the high country that I have not explored. Great video Dan. Thanks for sharing. I wonder what happens in the next episode?

      Seems to be a lesser known region - Highly recommend it. Thanks for watching Michael, I appreciate your continual encouragement. The trip certainly takes an unexpected direction😉👍

    Definitely a fire bunker. It’s a bit on the rough side inside with a few logs collapsed. Few of these around the high country.
    Cassilis Mines are extremely dangerous, with the droughts of recent they reckon the tunnels are very unstable now, but it’s a remarkable area.

    The long barrel shaped machinery looks like a ball mill. They would have big steel balls in there and feed the rock/ore in to get it broken up to extract the smaller nuggets and/or gold specks/dust. Then it would go through a wash plant to separate the gold from the gravel. Yeah.. I watch a bit of Aussie Gold Hunters 😛. Lugging all that stuff in by bullock dray or horses would have been hard yakka !!

    Great vid mate, love seeing the 90s in action.
    Any ideas for a good drive during the winter closures?

    • @OTWD
      @OTWD  Год назад +1

      Hey Jman mate appreciate the encouragement!😬 The 90 is such an awesome vehicle to shoot doing this stuff. Over winter I tend to do more basic camping and leave the touring (like the high country) to a different time. This trip was filmed ~one month before winter close. It's mothers nature playground up there and I love it...but we need to protect those tracks..I've been meaning to check out the Grampians and the Otways in more detail - reckon they'll make good winter trips. And a bit further east, some nice places still around Eildon. Any ideas in return? Cheers👍

    Wow man! So much cool stuff to be found, what time of the year was this trip? It's so hard to plan trips with all the closures, its just a long trip from Sydney to find the area is closed for winter.

    • @OTWD
      @OTWD  11 месяцев назад +1

      Yeah some cool things hiding in the scrub hey! The last day of this trip was the first day of May. You want to go as close to Kings Bday Public Holiday Weeekend as possible (typically late May/early June) but NOT after that - that's the date when everything closes. Being close to this date though increases chances of seeing snow. In general March - May is the best time - avoid the crowds, avoid the risk of fires (just be ready for the cold and a bit fire each night)! Cheers mate

      Hi KK thanks for the encouragement mate😬. It's a no brand bar, which seems to be a copy of an ARB bar, and the winch is a Runva (95000lb I think)
