The Mundaring Powerlines Track is one of the most well known 4WD tracks around Perth, and for good reason. It’s got everything; rocks, gravel, sand, mud, water crossings and a heap of hill climbs and descents. We headed out on Saturday with six 4WD’s, and had a great day.
Here’s the video, with plenty of photos beneath it:
Six 4WD’s at Mundaring with a wide range of modifications
Airing down. 20 PSI was our choice in the 80 series Land Cruiser
Justin will give anything a crack
Lots of fun in the rocks
One of the more notorious hill climbs. 5 choices, with 4 of them reasonably challenging
Daniel in the GU picking one of the middle lines
The 3.0L Auto goes very well
Over the hard bit
Justin up next, and without muddies things are a bit more challenging
No matter; the right amount of momentum is priceless
Our 80 up on the side track, with both lockers on, and the Gturbo purring away
Up and down
The last step, which was very steep
Some photo shots through the puddles
Lots of fun

What a beast

Not a bad flex test
Nicely tucked away
A walk in the park for the Triton
Sanesh’s Pajero lifting a front wheel
What a weapon
We came across a major recovery. 2 vehicles winching, with 4 vehicles behind them as anchors
A lot of force applied to the poor GU
Thankfully nothing broke, and the vehicle was still running
The Triton idling up
This Prado surprised me, although he did scrape a few bits underneath!
