Hell ! I can see the day when these areas will be shut out to everybody unless you are in a club or simillar group and escorted in because of these pricks !

Unfortunately what is needed is plenty of rain to bring up the creek to it's former glory, when even Donnelly's creek was a challenge .

:mad::mad::mad::mad:

I just wished these Idiots would get caught and made an example of to others who might entertain the same ideas.

I honestly can't believe it!

Grumpy have you contacted Noel to find out the extent of the damage etc.

:mad: If we were allowed to use bad language on here i would be going off my head!! :mad:

These morons, if they're caught should have their bikes and cars confiscated under the "hoon" laws.


:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:


Why would anyone want to do it anyway? Ruin it for others, thats the way losers!!!

Well thats just what we all need isn't it?
As a thought, if these areas were broken up into smaller sites with pine logs etc maybe that would slow down their destruction by the brains trust...
I know it would probably change the nature of O'Tooles forever but it might be a worthwhile compromise to keep it open for us genuine people

Is this damage recent or is it the same damage that was done over the winter? The forum held a meet and greet there early in November and all was well. (it had only just been reopened) By the way you are talking it sounds like it was the previous damage if not I hope it opens again soon.

I hope one day they get sprung and loose there vehicle's for good. I once watched a guy in a hilux hooning up and down the river at O'Briens crossing at Wombat state forest, got his rego and told the ranger. The ranger had this 4wd on his records and was going to pay him a visit, I was even prepared if the ranger required to go to court and testify.

Hi all finally got on to the Ranger station today, Apparrently O'Tooles isnt shut and there has been no or little damage to the area, The sign Sambartom is referring to is an old one according to the Ranger and will be Removed, they wern't aware it was still up on the shop window. Happy Camping Guys.
