After skidding down the thick, loose gravel on Hackett's, we tried this one from the bottom up...
Going up the narrow clay/ embedded gravel lane I was starting to wonder when things would start to climb skywards....
Hello!
Hmmmm...this could get interesting
...and just when you thought "I'll try for the ridge in the middle", the graveled twin-track curves behind some scrub and climbs steeply to the crossroads up above.
Looking back down...I wouldn't want to go down that one on a fresh blanket of gravel, even if it's only as short as what it is....the chance of residents and deliveries going/ coming either way, driveways and 4ft. thick gumtrees with that S-bend in the middle blocking the view... could turns things nasty.
More sweet stuff not far away...
From the old favourite, Johns Hill Reserve
Fantastic views across Monbulk and the Yarra Valley to a pitch-black Kinglake Ridge
