Possible SA meet Bendelby station

[discomatt]

we are thinking about a weekend stay at Bendleby Station on 11th August until 15th August on the start of a 3 month touring trip.
Before Covid I was starting to plan a SA annual meet there, this would not be an official Earth meet but people would be more than welcome to join us for a weekend of 4wding camping and chilling out at a awesome station stay.
Have a look and post any interest as booking will need to be made, shouldn't be to busy as it is before school holidays and we will be doing remote camping

2nd best station I have ever visited , Lorrella Springs being number 1, the contrast between the 2 mountain ranges on the property is staggering, the 4wding and bush walking is brilliant.

Still looking at doing this Matt? Thinking of joining.

What are your plans for on the way there?

 

[discomatt]

Still in the final planning, we will spending some time camping/touring on the way, its the start of a long touring trip, this bit is about 2 weeks in
Will definitely be spending at least 4 nights at Bendleby

Hey Matt, I’d be keen to join for a few nights (depending on work it may not be all 4). Be good to catch up again and do a few SA tracks.

remote camp booked, 12-16 August, really looking forward to leaving the rat race for a few months

Hi Matt. What's the plan for those that decide to join? We call up Bendleby, mention we're part of your group, book in / pay deposit, and they'll end up picking a location based on how many cars the group size gets to?

Is it arriving on the 12th and leaving on the 16th (4 nights)?

 

[discomatt]

We have booked remote for us and friends we are traveling with for the trip, people can ring and book anywhere they want , feel free to drop my name to get a camp that is not to far away, not sure how far apart all the bush camps are, we have a old map from when we were there in 2015 and are camping at camp 6 camp name is Sollys, there are a few camps not far away
Yes we are arriving on the 12th leaving 16th.
Our booked site is only big enough for us and our traveling companions so it will not be a big group camp as such but of coarse all are welcome for drives , drinks and fire banter

So disappointed, just seen this. Kazz n I were thinking about Bendleby in October (when its a bit warmer) Never been there. Done the Argadells twice, looking for something different. At the same time we are not that adventurous, just like getting off the tar..
