Hey guys. Back from our day out at Julimar Forest. We had a good couple of hours out there. I managed to find the play area, no swings or slides, but there is a small creek line that travels along for about 6 km. We traced along that, finding different ways to get across in different areas.
The creek isn't big by any stretch of the imagination, and its mainly dry, it's more like a run off from another creek. There are some pools of water along the way with some decent ruts. And if there wasn't a pool of water, the base was nearly always slippery. I reckon it made for a good few hours.
James, Dean and myself all tested out our recovery points, a few times each. It was a good day watching as another Nav with different specs would try a crossing and see how their mods faired. James' rubber flares and body lift has me keen and I want Deans bullbar.
To get there - go to the Chittering and Julimar T intersection and drive up Julimar Rd for about 5.2km. Turn left into the Forest. (Didn't measure distances from here, sorry) Make a right and follow the dirt track. Ignore the first left, continue straight. At the next intersection veer left. At the next intersection turn right and then your there. We just followed the creek heading East.
On the map pic, I put a pin drop for the start of the creek. If you view google maps, look for the area where the trees are a little spread out and you can see more of the dirt, you will struggle to see the creek line or the track.
In my opinion I think it's a good bit of fun and I would go back, especially if there had been some rain.
Ps - who does panel beating?
Il attach vids later. James has some to post up too.
