Gday Peter. I rode in disa around late may/early june with a mate who was in his 4wd and knows part of disa really well. We were around Andersons Gardens near Clonbinane and from what i remember there is heaps of growth over a lot of the non gravel tracks at that part of disa.
Just thought id pass that on to ya.

I was there a couple of months ago and it's not much chop on the South side of the Mountain.
A lot of it was closed at that time and what was open had a lot of rubbish [trees and branches] over the tracks.
Looks like the DSE has done a lot of permanent closures up there while no one has been around to notice.
