Hey Peoples, Lets keep this tread rolling.!!!
I am a starter as long as we can do September School Holidays. Drag is also a willing starter if we can lock down a venue and the timing.
Victorian High Country is closed from now until the weekend before Melbourne Cup Day, so that is NOT and option.
Maybe we should be looking somewhere (again) equally distant from Melb, Syd, Bris, Adel, which means Western Central NSW (again) .. Any thoughts or suggestions.
My suggestion is Meet at Camerons Corner then go to Innamincka via The Bore Track ( or Merty Merty depending on track conditions) I understand there is a beautiful camp site on the Cooper Creek at Innamincka.

Hi Stuart, good pick up on the closures of VHC trails during winter, it very much passed under my radar.
As Dubby touched on, I'm not sure how much of a turn off your suggestion of holding the '16 Muster in the Channel Country will be to those that attended the 2014 Muster at Silverton (Eldee station) as most of the '14 Muster attendees went north after Eldee to the Dig Tree on Cooper Creek via Tibbuburra, Cameron Corner, Merty Merty and Innamincka before splitting up.
It was a very interesting and enjoyable trip (other than the corrugations into Innamincka) as for us it was our very first trip outback, first group meet and first meet of some great people.
Initially I thought that going over old ground may be a turn off however previewing this post it just occurred to me that seeing Dubby and GazzaK indicated they will not be attending this year's Muster it just leaves Mick (Crowboy) and us as having previously covered that area.
My preference would be for someplace new (to us) but will wait and see what feedback we get from members and go from there, personally I think that we can lock in a date in September which suits you and Dragline and concentrate more on any venues put forward.
Would love to hear more expressions of interest from anyone wishing to attend.
