Bull Bar Cowboy Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Ali, Yeah, good fun & excellent pictures B) ………………………… I have spent many a happy day up at LCMP Jimna ………………… did you not try to cross the lake by the picnic tables ? …………. it was bloody deep when I was there last. Also did you try any of the next to impossible trails …….. where lockers and at least 37’s were required. Next time you go up …………. take some pics of the ‘stuck & Recovery pics that are posted up in the sign on cabin ……….and post ‘em here to show what a real ‘stuck’ is………….some real treasures in there. It used to be $18 a day (2004)……………seriously cheap for some really good quality trails, but if you were on your own and needed recovery they used to charge $104 an hour for the recovery. Last time I went, we had a borrowed troopy running the straight 6 fat fryer, and bro’ in law used his L200 ute …………. the weather was very wet and I was forever pulling the L200 POS out of the washouts ……………… ah …… happy memories. I’ll dig out some pictures later. You lucky sod …………….. Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bull Bar Cowboy Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Ali, I’ve found some pictures, This is lake (pond) that you drive through ………very steep entrance and exit ……. It used to be about 4 foot deep in the middle ……… probably dry now ? Most of it was running streams when I was there ……….. like this Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MogLite Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Just spent the weekend at Curiser park in Queensland.Had a great time the 90 did ok considering it is standard ...... Hey hold on - since when is your 90 stock - you've upgraded you suspension to OME. You've upgraded your tyres from 205's - to BFG. You've got a winch bumper and all kinds of other do-dads. What you mean is your 90 is a lame spece compared to all the full on Aussie trucks LCMP is indeed an awesome place - I'll check out your vids later. I had a hired LandCruiser camper, and thought the route to the car-park was pretty extreme, indeed it was as I managed to knacker a CV. I was quite surprised to see a 2wd car in the car park when I got there !!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
