How are the tracks at Callala Beach holding up after all the rain?
Went out for a reccy this arvo and it all looking good. No dust to report. There are a few parts of the Forest we won't be using just because it's too wet, but for the most part it's really rocking.
Because it's been pretty variable weather the tracks have seen little use over the last month or so and they are a little more forest floor like than usual, but mostly all that is falling at the moment is the leaves and bark, which will clear quickly. Many won't recognise the forest, it is looking very green and alive. It's great to be out there.
Things to avoid:
sticks, dang trees keep growing them and throwing them away
mozzies, don't stop and they won't get you
overgrowth, I'd really suggest glasses, clear or whatever you prefer. There is so much new growth you will notice it.
If you are thinking of camping be aware of the mozzies mentioned above.
As is the norm for this event the trails will be 'as you find them'. While it will be clearly marked actual lines may not be as clear as normal. Obviously the later you start the clearer the track will be and I expect that the 90k'ers will find it quicker with each lap because of the additional traffic.
Looking forward to seeing you all there!
