Looks nice mate.

Came yesterday , took it for a walk - Like walking a house brick .
But it sure does flood , I recon U could play football with two of these lighting up a football field ..
Not sure about lumens , all that flood ..
It needs more light levels .. High is just embarrassingly high ...

23rd June > Should be interesting ...

 

[Fusion_m8]

Who's coming for the meet?

 

[old4570]

Barring weather ( RAIN ) , yeah !
Looks like a PITA place to be rained on ..

 

[harro]

Will be there. Come prepared for rain or shine. I think theres BBQ there, any place for a fire though? I can bring a bag of wood. Does anyone have a small fire brazier?

 

[mvyrmnd]

so is this happening on the 16th or the 23rd?

 

[Fusion_m8]

pretty sure its 23rd...

 

[old4570]

I believe the 23rd was the chosen date ..
So next week end ... (?)
Long term weather also might support the 23rd

Prediction is Overcast and 14 deg C

Pretty cold, but it is winter I guess. If its on, I have found a small brazier and will bring some kindling and redgum. Dunno if fires are allowed at Yellowgum, but its not exactly the fire danger period. There are BBQ and dunnies there looking at google maps, and some sort of structure that may or may not be shelter. It looks like a tin roof with alternating sheets of laserlight roofing maybe??? As long as there is a relatively low possibility of rain.

What looks to be the main area.

 

[Fusion_m8]

Fires are permitted as long as they comply with Forest Fire Management rules and regulations: https://www.ffm.vic.gov.au/permits-and-regulations/fire-restrictions-and-regulations

So who is definitely coming this Saturday? Around what time should we be there and which part of yellow gum park should we meet? I am definitely going if people are keen on getting together.

 

[harro]

I'm in. The carpark looks to be close to the bbq dunny shelter ( guessing ) area. Forecast looks ok, 20% of 1 - 2 mm.

 

[Fusion_m8]

I will bring some meat to BBQ if harro brings his firepit... we should meet before it gets dark... maybe around 4.30pm at the carpark?

 

[bdogps]

4:30pm sounds good

 

[harro]

Ummm, no hotplate for the fire pit, but there are barby's there i think, or do you have an old frypan Gav?
