We are back baby! Gordon Country, our first camp in our NEW weekender series
WE ARE BACK BABY!
Well our lap of Australia may have ended but we cannot pass up the opportunity to explore our back yard in Queensland, so we are starting up our NEW weekender series! Our first camp is an old faithful for us, Gordon Country just outside of Warwick. We absolutely love this place and we had our camp all to ourselves, it pays to be self-sufficient. We also get to test out or NEW Supapeg Outbound 180 degree awning, we are super happy with the quality of this awning and can't wait to test it out more on other adventures!

IS THIS REALLY THE END? We crossed the border into NSW! This has to be one of our most favourite drives through the beautiful snowy mountain region through to Wee Jasper. We can't believe how cold it became though, it was so cold the rooftop had frost and was frozen. We decided it was time to make the big journey home and after 9 months on the road, we crossed the border back into Queensland! #...

    Hi Jamie just binging on your videos, fantastic Just a question I can ask if ok about your fj?? I noticed that you have the old man emu suspension, you have also installed extended shackles to get a higher lift. Looks great How did you go with the shock and extended shackles on the rear of the fj have you had any issues. ?? I’m considering doing the same suspension on my fj and I hear stories that the shocks have very limited travel due to the extended shackles on the rear. I’m no mechanic so please excuse my ignorance. Thanks.

    Mountain weather can be insanely variable. I drove the Alpine way a few years ago in summer to avoid the snow and encountered whiteout conditions over Mt Hotham that I could only navigate through a combination of the fluoro snow markers, GPS navigation and occasionally opening my car door to check I was still on the road.

    • @explora_downunder

    Well done 👍 Great travel vlog. Just stumbled across your video whilst researching for travel ideas. I live at the foot of the Dandenong Ranges & weekend camp often at Kurth Kiln & yeah it can get very cold out there during winter, in fact there’s another camping area ‘Starting Gap’ 30 minute driver Warburton direction which gets snow. Good to see the weather improve as you hit the coastal areas, the crossing to Queenscliff is something I way consider for my next trip plus the Great Ocean Rd. Thanks for sharing your travels.
