It was time to take on Monkey Gum, once again, getting the Patrol & Land Cruiser offroad 4X4 4WD . Located at Yalwal NSW, only being a couple of hours from Sydney, and a short drive from Nowra, this is one of the toughest tracks in the region, with 6 Six Stage being the most notorious, in the area.
It was wet and dark when we arrived, turning up the challenges for our night run, along the Mintbush trail, which is the usual route taken to reach Monkey Gum.
After camping along the Mintbush trail, overnight, we set off in the morning, with plenty of time to tackle Monkey Gum. Our progress was slowed, by tyre bead issues and a rolled rig.

Yalwal stage 6? Never head of it. Monkey Gum consists of 3 stages. 1. Down Mint bush off Deans Gap Rd. 2. At the bottom you can turn right to camp, but turn left to access the Wombat Flat track that takes you to the start of Monkey Gum. 3. Never forget that at the top of MG, you still have a bloody long way to go to access the Braidwood Rd, .... or clean your undies & go back the way you came in. Very few have the guts to do this ... I did it once back in 2000 when it was a 4 x 4 track ... I will not go near it today.

What brand of rock lights are on the 80? I’ll make sure not to buy them. Absolutely useless.

@hititoffroad4545 7 ай бұрын

Love the comment, although 🥺 It’s probably more to do with my lack of cleaning them, as they are usually covered in mud. They are Direction Plus and pretty good when cleaned 🧼

I have seen people take newbie 4wd drivers here. Stupid. A bit of expereince is needed.

@@harrywalker968 We would suggest that the track be tackled by people that have completed M/H tracks previously and are well prepared to handle breakages, as this track, especially when wet, is hard on the vehicles and see's a lot of recovery's/rescue's of people/vehicles, that don't make it the entire way. Being in an experienced club or a group, would defiantly be beneficial, with most well established clubs, generally having a ranking system for its members and wouldn't take a novice on this track.
