Roving at QG51/52/61/62 junction?

Now that the Annual Gridsquares competition is up and running, time to think about some roving operation to activate some squares.

Has anybody ventured to the junction of gridsquares QG51/52/61/62?
It is just north of Allora on the New England Hwy.

I'm wondering if it's feasable to drive out there with the intention of activating QG51, QG52 and then QG61.

Comments?

If you want to know what the area looks like, check out

Note that several VK3 confluences have been "uncovered" by our very own (new) editor for AR - Peter VK3KAI - most likely investigating sites for the VHF/UHF Field Day which, like the AGT, has a scoring system based on squares worked from/to.

Adam,

I think Doug VK4OE may have been there previously. Might be worth contacting him.
