my club a few years ago politely asked a group to shut it down (it was only midnight), to be threatened and Shit..
next day, as our the club drove off, one bloke from the club few 100mtrs out of camp found all his wheel nuts on 1 side (the side thjese ****s were on) were all missing or undone.. that could have ended much worse than it did if they were on a cliff edge...

This is too true. You almost need private access to get away from them now.

Funny I'm hearing more and more of these challenges free camping. I spent the weekend at a CP and the neighbours were lovely, kids were respectful and everyone was quiet by 10pm.this is true, but some of the prices some parks charge are worse than the tax on pre-mixed drinks.
Why is it that the high country area 12,330 km2 (4,760.6 sq mi) yet its hard to find a spot with nobody around ???

He came in for a third fly by so I stood in the middle of the track and suggested that my camp and the neighbours had kids, that he had filled my camp with dust twice, and I would take a dim view if it happened a third time........he came around to my way of thinking. They camped up and we never heard a peep from them all weekend LOL
Other than that we had a top weekend :)

I generally get away when everyone is bach at work/school so I get most campsites to myself but I am getting increasingly frustrated at the filth left behind by mindless idiots.
No friggen wonder the powers that be are closing these places down.

We took this option for Easter; camping at "BaseCamp" (no relation :) ).. which is a private Macadamia Farm in Yandina SEQ ...and over Christmas; at a private cattle property totally surrounded by crown land at West Kunderang, NSW....
During these peak holiday times; we had very private and "exclusive" areas without anyone in sight; nor their screaming kids; yapping dogs; droning generators and chainsaws anywhere in earshot....
Average cost $30 per night, 2 pax...

Away we went to the other place, those lads were set up where we like to go, so off we went to the other spot John (the owner) told us about. We were wrapped with it, nice & quiet & an even better spot than the usual.
The first day when getting wood, we notices a nanny in the scrub on her own, we stopped for a look to see why she wasn't running & she'd just given birth. Next day getting more wood, she was still hanging around & it turned out she'd had twins.
That afternoon, there was gunfire going off in our paddock, I was pretty pissed off that it was that close.
Today driving out, they'd shot the nanny & the kids had perished too being so young.
I love my hunting & shooting, but I just can't understand these wanks doing this. I called into the house but there was no one home. I'll be calling him tomorrow to let him know it wasn't us & that I think those guys are nothing but grubs.

The rear Right made funny scraping sounds , so l stoped . Pulled the wheel off , put it back on , problem solved .
my club a few years ago politely asked a group to shut it down (it was only midnight), to be threatened and Shit..
next day, as our the club drove off, one bloke from the club few 100mtrs out of camp found all his wheel nuts on 1 side (the side thjese ****s were on) were all missing or undone.. that could have ended much worse than it did if they were on a cliff edge...
In 218Ks l have never had that happen . Makes you think don't it ................... ???

You know one day they'll actually find your camp and rock in.
I usually hang out the Myswag flag and when someone rocks in nearby I go up and ask if they're one of us. When they say no, but I explain about us swaggers, they seem to drive out very quickly

I am finding great success camping on private property (sourced via youcamp)Last time I checked youcamp (a while ago) I was bit underwhelmed with the options, There is a number of places now however that I'd be interested in trying. It would benefit from a review section similar to wiki camps, especially where people can post up pictures. I think it is a great concept, hopefully it can live up to it's potential.

Michael, Paul and myself spoke about this on the weekend actually, somehow everyone just said they would point them in my direction and say he is our leader!
I had the myswag flag going on the trailer.
The lower small stuff....

I don't understand why a Mormon sign would keep young men away?
Maybe it's just us then??? But it's funny sitting around camp, people drive past the sign, look at us, look at it and then quickly look away. You can see them wanting to keep looking but they are trying not too. You can also hear the conversations in the car sometimes, which gives us a laugh.

looks like I need to get one of those flags - and what do you say about us that makes them decide to look elsewhere? I guess just making them think the place with be crowded with like-minded people would frighten some away - strength in numbers and all that

Dalton is in between Yass and Goulburn in NSW.

Alternatively google the "Royal hotel Dalton" we are 6.5 kms from the pub on the Lachlan River.
