Arctic Blast Coming

[jo zero]

Hi all

Just wondering if anyone else is going away this weekend in SEQ. Knowing I'm not the only idiot planing to take the family out into an arctic blast will provide me with at least a little bit of comfort (we're heading up to Goomburra Valley).

Cheers

We had plans of heading to Gordon Country but have changed our minds. I don't mind the cold but -1 is pushing it lol

Let us know how you go.

Might be a good idea to get your username changed to jo minus ten if you intend going up there this weekend

Was thinking the same thing.  If we were to get an Arctic Blast there would probably be a few other things to worry about as well.

A reasonable day up the top pf the hill today.  Some blue sky in amongst the showers.  Should see some snow tonight or early morning.  Good luck to the campers

Alright - Antarctic Blast for the geographically pedantic among us : )

And I think discretion is going to be the better part of valour this weekend - maybe we'll try again next week!

It's called Winter, it's finally arriving. I'll be heading away without my family as they have other plans, but normally they'd come camping as that's why we have a diesel heater in our camper

I can tell that you are in Vic. This was me trying to get out the driveway this morning!

Cold weather camping is great (My favourite to be honest) if you are prepared. I often get tempted to move back south again to enjoy cool (ok freezing) weather camping.

We are heading away this weekend in SEQ (Gold Coast Hinterland). The stock of fire wood is plentiful and the camper has a diesel heater so it is easy nowadays but we didn't without too much hassle pre-camper with woolen underlays on the air bed, wear a beanie etc and were completely fine at down to around the 0-2deg mark. Even got cuddles!!

What is that white stuff on the chain wire....?  I'v never seen that before up here in QLD.....

I admit I'm a soft Queenslander and these days prefer to give the cold a miss especially with kids in tow. In the morning everything is wet from the dew and your wearing so many layers of clothing it's uncomfortable.

Nothing like a nice shady spot on the beach in summer wearing shorts and Tee shirt day and night. Plus beer always tastes better is summer.
