    Out of the lockdown and into the creeks (VIC)

    Hello everyone, Thanks for all the wisdom floating around on here and that to come. Relatively new to this and have made some perhaps too ambitious trips from Melbourne into the bush this past fortnight. Had high hopes to camp a few nights at Store Point Hut and to explore the tributaries...
