I woke up this morning and decided to (finally) get out on the tracks. As I was by myself I wasn't going to do anything too eccentric so I ventured into the Anglesea Heath area behind Anglesea and Airey's Inlet. Initially I planned to spend most of the day searching for (and with some luck, photographing) some of the rarer birds that had been reported in the area recently but the hot, windy weather made birding a dud so I reacquainted myself with more of the tracks. It felt good to engage low range and lower the tyre pressures for the first time in the GX.
Allardyce Track
Many of these tracks are impassable in the wet and are closed in winter and spring but they were bone dry so the biggest problems were a few areas with soft sand, bumps and ruts but these were easily overcome by taking it easy and careful wheel placement in the few tricky parts.

So, no great challenges but a great day in amongst some wonderful scenery.
