Heading up that for a weekend of fun in January 08, anyone know of the state of the tracks up there.
Mainly the tracks around King Hut would do, thanks for your time.

Since then read on a few forums that the river has done damage in many
areas to the enterance/exit of river crossings in the whole area.

anway here is their reply.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The huts burnt/destroyed on your list are ; Bluff , Bus , Craigs and
Mt No 3.

Can I suggest you check with Parks Victoria or even the Mansfield
Information Centre for track conditions before hand.

They should all be open by then but I know the Bluff Link track has
some issues just at the moment.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Original Trip Plan was

FRIDAY NIGHT:
Camping at Sheepyard Flat socialise with fire and drinks.

SATURDAY:

1 - Frys Hut
2 - Tunnel Bend
3 - Upper Jamieson Hut
4 - Refrigerator Gap
5 - Lovicks Hut
6 - Bluff Hut
7 - Pikes Flat
8 – Bindaree Hut --- Either camp there or another location nearby ;)

If we are travelling well, we can continue onto Kings for first night.

SUNDAY:

1 - Bindaree Falls
2 - Monument Track
3 - Craig's Hut McDonalds if we can get there.
4 - Kings Hut.

There are several water crossings beyond Kings Hut area, so Snorkels
or Blinds are advisable

5 – Razorback Hut
6 – Bus Hut
7 – Refuge Mt. No. 3 Hut
8 – Tomahawk Gap and Hut
Then into Mansfield for a coffee, dinner if you like, defiantly a wee
and then home.
