Re: SEQ Mt Mee Jan3

looks like fun, i was coming down the bruce highway in the rain, looking at all the mud on the side tracks very tempted to take a detour!

did you make it out before the storms?

Re: TRIP REPORT : SEQ Mt Mee Jan3

Was a great day out at short notice. Its been 6yrs since I visited the mountain.
The tracks were very dry and dusty. I was expecting some mud, but perhaps we weren't looking in the right places. :cry:

To answer Hutch's Question on who went?
There was myself (Stewy), LFaR, Masso and LFaR's brother in the pathfinder.

Cheers

Looks like a beautiful part of this country.

Nice pics BTW, it's a shame the Nissan Pathy had to ruin them :P

Re: TRIP REPORT : SEQ Mt Mee Jan3

Bummed I couldn't get to this trip... thanks for the call BTW. (I was waiting for a thread as I couldn't hear the name of who called and the msg was very crackly The number didn't show up as a missed call as the phone was out of range when you called)... so long story short, I wasn't meaning to ignore you
I got in late Saturday night from a run up to Rainbow Beach with some photography peoples

Looks like a great trip... I'm surprised there wasn't any mud :shock: I gather you made it out b4 the rain hit because I was watching the radar and it passed straight over Mt Mee.

Hutch... give me a couple of weeks and I'll be up for a drive.
The fuel budget took a bit of a hiding last week... 2 day trip out on the FIL's boat and a trip to Rainbow :mrgreen:

No worries Leon, it was me who called.

It was actually on Fri when my brother mentioned he had a need to test his Pathy. It was Sat before I thought maybe others would like to join in too. I was thinking it was too late for a thread, but in retrospect I could've and should've.

The tracks were recently graded, so despite letting our tyre pressure down, it was smooth forest driving with just a few steeps.

Re the storm... I was scanning the UHF and on channel 8 a "severe thunderstorm alert" was made at 9:55am and repeated every 10 mins or so. By about 11am, we all thought we were going to cop it: deep dark-grey skies, sudden temperature drop, gale-force winds... then by around midday when we stopped for lunch, it had all disappeared.

Here's the Mt Mee Trip Log on Google Maps.

A big thanks to Rick for taking so many pics along the way!

Cheers,
LFaR.
