Approx. 400m after going through the 2nd cattle grid the track
swings up over the levee wall and continues through the forest for approx. 1km
where the track opens out onto a large cleared area of sandy beach and shady
camping spots. The track now follows along the back of the beach for nearly 1km
and there are camping spots all the way along.
Left home early Friday only around an hour’s drive to camp arrived
to find 2 others already set up on the sand bar a little apprehensive towing
the camper onto the sand as never driven on sand before, aired down tyres and
set off to camp spot right along the river had mini jam donuts cooked in our
new $18 Dick Smith 12v portable stove
By late afternoon a lot more of the group had arrived and more into
the night. Set of to find some wood and nearby a number of large trees had
fallen down so these became the fuel or the next 2 nights, a lot of wood was
burnt. Quick dinner of pizzas on the Webber then off to the fire for hours of
laughter and drinks
Saturday we had to travel back home or Kirstie’s 22nd
birthday at a pub in town so we took the opportunity for a shower and the use
of a flushing toilet, life’s little luxuries!!
Arrived back at camp for another night of fire and drinks where
another couple of cubic metres of timber had been collected by those in camp
for another great night around the camp fire for more laughs and drinks in bed
around midnight
Woke Sunday morning to a great day where we packed up at a leisurely
pace only to have the handle of the jockey wheel come off so had to get some help
to lift the drawbar to engage in the hitch on the car, the trailer is now in
the garage on bricks
A brilliant weekend !!!!
