Tallarook State Forest

Recently, I joined a Meetup group that does four-wheel-drive trips. My first trip with them was to Tallarook State Forest, about an hour north of Melbourne. There isn't much story here, but the views were nice and the people were great. I'm looking forward to doing more outings with them.

I did have another trip scheduled with them a couple weeks ago, but we canceled it due to extreme fire risk. This turned out to be a wise decision, because there was a rather large fire in the area when we were supposed to have been there.
