You approach via the Buckland Valley road which starts near the Bright/ Wang./ Mt. Buffalo roundabout . The Buckland valley road is sealed at first and then becomes a dirt road which is 2 wd suitable.
early-mid Spring should be okay for finding water .
Keen is the word.
I couldn't find exactly where Selwyn Creek rd intersects the AAWT on Google, but I think I got the general area, near Murray's Hut?
In any case, that appears to be a long walk from Mt. Spec and a long drive before hand.
I might have to turn around by the time I got to the Viking given my leisurely pace.

I'm keeping an eye on the weather and will probably head back in via Cobbler Tk if I go.
The walk along the Howqua feeder (easier than up 8 mile Spur and along the ridge past Magdala) from 8 mile flat seems to be a day long job and unfortunately I don't have all the time in the world.
I would like to do your trip in Green Season, as well as walk along the Howqua and also from the Bluff to XCut some day.
Got so many walks in that area I'd like t tick off.
I see why it's a top walking area.
