I continued on and drove out to Coola Outstation for a look and while wandering around disturbed a huge Beehive in the fireplace.

1-4-23:
Stayed put again and went for a bit of a walk down the beach and had a quick swim ... at 17 degrees it was more like a half dip than a swim as the ambient was 16 degrees and the wind was freezing.

2-4-23:
weather was looking a bit better so i headed north again through tight overgrown tracks [that i found out later had turned my watertank tap on and emptied the tank] there was a maze of tracks around the buggy club which made it impossible to follow a "main" track as the marker posts are few and far between but eventually i found a brand new track off the beach which bypasses Nora Creina and travelled a few Kms on dirt roads to Little Dip conservation park and got back to the beach run.

I did a lot of beach driving and made much better time so it wasn't long before i finished the 4WD bit of this trek a couple of Kms from Robe.

I drove into Robe and checked out the Obelisk, lighthouse, jail ruins and pumped the tyres back up at doorway rock
