Rubicon - Marysville Ramble
A medium trip touring the Rubicon area, making our way through to Marysville and ending at Narbethong. Along the way we will visit the Rubicon early hydro-power stations, make our way to Keppel Hut, go through Marysville to Keppel Lookout and finish in Narbethong.
Snatch-strap and rated shackles should be brought along and be prepared to lower your tyre pressures. If there is a lot of rain in the days before the trip, the itinerary may change.
A full tank of fuel ex-Melbourne should suffice.
Meeting place is the public park, just to the south of Buxton on the Maroondah Highway.
Meeting time is 8:30am, ready to leave.
If you are running late or cannot make it, please call the trip leaders on 0407096295.

Bring a picnic lunch and your morning tea; you may want to bring chairs or a picnic rug. Also don't forget your sense of humour!
We will be in the bush with most likely no public facilities - bring your shovels and toilet bags and drinking water.
Weather can be changeable - from hot to cold very quickly - ensure hats and warm clothing are brought.
Trip Leaders are Jane and Phill Collyer.
