    Still wish to do this track, but after seeing your video, I'm so glad we did Mount Pinnabar January last year when we found the Davies High Plains "Road Closed" sign then. Mount Pinnabar plan B turned out to be a real hoot as you too discovered. The NSW and VIC government should be funding you, as this is turning out to be the go to site for planning trips.

    • @TylerThompson90
      @TylerThompson90  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hi Tyler
    Another good one.
    A great education for Malakai , not many kids today would think of going bush
    Especially without iphone and iPad coverage.
    By the way, what ever happened to Khala ( hope I spelt her name correctly ) I though she was a great asset
    A real character, she always seemed to have fun and appeared to care for the young fella.
    I apologise if I am out of order, just curious.
    We just got back from the Vic high country in December and only just scratched the surface.
    Cheers.
    Keep us all happy.
    Col.

      Hey mate, thank you! Glad you enjoyed. Kayla hasnt been on the last few videos because she had been pretty tied up at work and hadn't come on any filming trips (kayla and I had done a few one nighters by ourselves).
      But after the high country she flew down and met us in melbourne and we did 10 days on the great ocean road together (Kayla, Malakai and Myself) which will be the next series after this one :)
