Hi Guys only just recently have we acquired a Prado so we thought we'd take it into the Morton National park and Meryla State forest to test it out...
Pretty much got the trip from the '4wd trips close to Sydney' book...
We started from Fitzroy Falls and made our way eventually to Wombat Hill Lookout Trail via a few dirt tracks and detoured through some powerline tacks. We then returned via Gunrock falls firetrail. We got halfway along gunrock falls fire trail and climbed a pretty gnarly hill but halfway up it got pretty hectic and my tyre pressures were still too high... we decided to u-turn and follow the easier gunrock creek firetrail.
A few times we had to turn around as it got quite rough and we were by ourselves with no winch fitted yet...
Overall a good first trip, plenty of good views and some decent puddles to play in!
I will definitely plan a detailed route and post it up if anyone decides they want to do a day trip out that way.
Ill be adding some pics today - Hope you enjoy!
