While much of the country has been receiving heavy rains, the Mitta Valley has received only light falls this week following a dry February, so that road conditions in the forest are currently close to perfect.

Significant thunderstorm activity and rainfall is forecast for the day of the event, but the forest authorities consider that the forest roads should stand up reasonably well to rally traffic under wet conditions.

So, if you are preparing to leave for Mitta, keep on coming.  The local community has stocked up with supplies and looks forward to your visit this weekend.
