VIC Camping trip

Recommended Posts

Called in for a look yesterday.

Getting a lot wetter, and a fair few fungii are already fruiting. The amanitas are starting to kick-off, but no Lepiotas yet (or subs).

Won't be long now though.

I'll be taking a small generator, so electricity will be available if anyone has a music-box that they want to bring.

I'm very keen to come along too, but would prefer to meet some of you beforehand as I'm pretty sure I don't know anyone on this site by sight.

Would anyone be interested in a meet-and-greet drinks-at-the-pub style thingo sometime in the next few weeks (in Melbourne)?

Please PM me if interested and if there are enough numbers I will post the details up here....

Cheers! :shroomer:

Cool, no worries. My thinking with a pub night beforehand was that it would be a chance to organise lifts and sharing of food, gear etc. The idea was grossly unpopular and might as well just be done here instead, so:

1. Please count me in

2. I will prolly be leaving early on the Saturday morning from Chelsea in a mostly empty station wagon, so PM if you and your gear need a ride. I will aim to come home on the Sunday arvo.

What's the go with wood?

I'm willing to cut and cart but could do with a hand loading. It's getting wet here now so good dry wood will be becoming more scarce.

If anyone's got an 'arvo free in the next week, or even a one-nighter?

due to a potential bussiness deal i probably wouldnt be able to make it, but its up in the air again so reguardless of what happens im gonna be there ;) carving it into stone as we speak. need this time away

depending on whos going ill know a few faces, will still be goin the train so if anyone wants to meet up when i get in the state let me know. should be rocking up at (i forget the name) that big ass central hub station in melb, queen street or somthing??? i dont remember, but its the big one, ballzac i met you there for ega last year. ill be there early AM and headin west.

Conan, im sure we traded MSN's so if you could jump on at some stage, since the lab is down, so i can work out some things with ya ;) that would be great.

ill be planning to hang about for a few days after for some meditative/energy exercises, depending on lift potential or keeness for hitch-hicking. this should be good and is greatly needed ;)

I can get plenty of wood, just need a hand loading it. I'm not into bonfires, but a decent fire for warmth and light makes all the difference. It gets pretty cold down in those valleys at night.

I was thinking of popping out for a chat this weekend if you'll be there. If CT's available we'll cut some wood on the way and save you buying any. If he's not, do you fancy spending an hour or so on Saturday and we'll grab some then? What time were you thinking of getting there?

I was gonna meet a certain party (ahem) out there last week but he got lost. So I've made up a couple of maps with distances and route marked on them. They're finished except for the exact signage on the last turnoff which I'll grab this weekend (I've driven down the bloody road hundreds of times but can't remember what's on the signs).

Seats available in my car from Colac station to any interested.

Also if anyone's coming by public transport I've got tents and chairs and shit if you'd like to save lugging stuff on and off trains.

pm me for any of the above (with an e-mail addy if you want the maps).

Spencer Street. Um...Assuming my mate's still coming - which he says he is, so I guess he is, lol - we can give you a lift (EDIT: Only room for one apparantly). Otherwise I'll be coming down on the train too.

Less than a fortnight off now.

How about a show of hands?

If anyone would like a lift/loan of gear now's the time to ask. If you've already spoken to me about either, please confirm.

Maps are finished, pm me for copies.

I'll be coming along with two friends. They're brothers, so it was kinda hard to make the decision to bring one and not the other. But if you guys think we should stick to the one friend rule then let me know and I'll reorganise.
