A 4WD track heads up Timber Creek from the Danseys Pass Rd and climbs Mt Kyeburn. A further old 4WD track drops north from the summit later swinging west to the spectacular Buster Diggings. Mt Buster Hut is on the south face just before the diggings, just over the fence.

Timber Creek must be crossed at the start of the track. It is generally OK, but could become impassable after very heavy rain.
