Denisons to Curly advice

[nickthetasmaniac]

Hi everyone

A mate and I have 6 days off next week and we're looking to do a trip to either a: Lake Curly via Lake Rhona and the Denison Range (decent weather), or b: just Lake Rhona and the Denison Range (less decent weather).

Assuming we decide to have a go at Lake Curly, I expect we would camp at Lake Wugata, then head out via Bond's Craig, possibly North Star, Badger Flat and finally Curly.

I've read what I can about the route, including a couple of threads here and the (understandably) vague Chapman notes, but if anyone's done the route recently would you be able to PM me anything of relevance?

Both of us have done a fair bit of walking in the Southwest, and a fair bit of off-track, but this will be the first off-track in the Southwest.

Cheers, Nick

Heya Nick. I just got back from a traverse along the Denisons, and we took a bit of a geez at the route down off Bonds. I will send you through a PM with what I know, might be heading out that way again this Sunday for a similar kind of escapade. What day you heading in??

We'll be heading in Sat 15 - Thurs 20

Fair weather. Curly is a priority for us..

Hope the weather is better down there than it was coming back from Weld . . .

Not really, ended up spending three nights at Rhona in the rain, having to wade the Gordon to get out (the log was just submerged).

Awesome area though and I'm definitely keen to go back
