@@diggascryptoawarenessdownu7246 Thanks. It was a good camp.

Hi, thanks for watching. I have been away for a few days and this is my first opportunity to respond to your comment. I've had a go at repairing the tent now and it seems to work fine. Years ago a guy commented on the channel that I should try tarp camping. I think he was from the UK and I guess he has no idea about the kind of animal life we have here in a sub-tropical wetlands. There are a hell of a lot of reptiles around, not the kind of thing I'd like to be sharing my sleeping bag with.

@overthebackfence8776 Oh, gosh....yeah, you'd be crazy to tarp camp! I only use tents, too, though we (here in the States) don't have too many concerns. But creepy-crawly bugs freak me out!

@@fleotusbing We have lots 6 and 8 legged bugs down here too. I like something between me and them. If I was camping away from the wetlands I might give tarping a go in winter.

Thanks. It helps when the location of the video is so beautiful.

Thanks for the comment - it was great. Didn't think about camping until the tent was set up and I saw the clouds. I do love the sound of rain. Carpet pythons like to eat bats, possums and rodents. They only grow to about 4 metres in length (about 12 feet), though a close relative, the scrub python which lives a bit further north, has been reported at 8.5 metres. Definitely not something to find hiding at the bottom of your sleeping bag.

Thanks for watching. I think just about everyone in the world has a bigger variety of tents to choose from than what is available down here in Australia. I've only seen Eureka tents on UA-cam and as far as I know they don't sell them anywhere out here, or if they do, they cost big$.

@overthebackfence8776 The formula for needed tents is N + 1, where N is the number of tents you already have, lol.

Yes indeed. It is a great spot.

Yes, there were quite a few people there doing just that. It looked very inviting.

I'm in Queensland actually. A lot warmer and more humid than Victoria

Thanks for your comment. It certainly is a lovely spot

Thanks for watching. Yes, it is a beautiful area.

Yep, it's always fun to get out

Thanks for watching. It wasn't my first overnighter, just the most relaxing. I seem to be getting used to the noises of the woodland.

I’m just starting out and was good to watch, some good tips 👍

Thanks for watching. It was a very relaxing camp, I was surprised I managed to sleep so long. If it wasn't for the possum, I might even have managed to grab an hour or two more.

Hi, thanks for watching. I enjoy being outdoors too. There's something special about waking up in the woods.

Yes, it's a lovely spot. Close by too. I'm very lucky here.

@@FairnessFobe I'm glad you enjoyed the video. It is a nice walk. I'm in Brisbane now. The weather is pretty chilly here too.

Sorry it has taken me so long to reply. Thanks for watching and subscribing. I've discovered that there are a lot of reserves near me that are surprisingly nice.

Thanks. I find the hexamine stoves handy to have in a day pack and a few years ago I bought a bundle of 10 or 20 boxes at a really good price. I seldom use them on overnighters - of which I've done one since this video but yet to edit. Yeah, the view was great - took Mrs T by surprise you can hear the 'Oh wow' when she sees it. She is slowly getting better. She has had some injections but will have to do some physio to fully recover. I am aiming do an overnighter once a month - I might not make it in summer when the humidity is unbearable, but that is the aim. I have cut back my work hours and want to get out more

Hello 👋 dear friends a nice walk you guys had,and what a super 👌 spot for a cuppa ❤.Thanks for sharing 👍 greetings from England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Simon and Beth 🔔♥️👋

@@sbdiaries Thanks for the comment. Yes, it is a lovely spot that we found. I hope to visit it a few more times before the weather warms up too much.

Thanks for watching and commenting. It is getting (relatively) chilly down here now. I was glad I went and I felt a lot more relaxed this time.

Thanks for you're comment. Glad you enjoyed the video. Not sure I'm a great explorer, I just enjoy snooping around. As for videography, I think I have improved - and there's nothing like practice.

Thanks fleotusbing. I know you are a long time watcher. I am hoping to do more - some like this, and some 'midweekers' in official campgrounds that are hopefully near empty.

True about the snakes. I thought it was too late in the year for them to be out, but I saw one on my last day hike.

@@overthebackfence8776 Waiting on next time

Thanks

None so far. Hopefully it stays that way. It's not a reserve, just unused crown land. It's likely a flood mitigation area. I didn't leave anything behind and didn't light a fire. Some dog walkers pets leave more evidence of their visit.

Thanks

Thanks

Thanks for visiting the channel. The video is from a nice area.

Thanks. It's a lovely walk, though I'd recommend it when it is little cooler. The Mossies are aggressive, numerous and highly tolerant to everything I took with me. But I suppose that's most of Brisbane in summer.

Thanks. Otis might like Queensland as traditionally Queenslanders are known by people from other Australian states as Banana benders.

Thanks, it was a great day out.

Yes, it's a beautiful spot. Not that far from Brisbane and I can't beleive that was my second trip in 30 years.

Thank you. It's a beautiful place 🌅

Yep, it's a pretty amazing place

Glad you enjoyed. A trip to Port Stephens is like going home for me. I was raised there, but sadly moved away when I was 18. Despite the development it is still a lovely spot.

Yes. I moved away years ago and don't get back often enough. It's a great spot.

Thank you. It is a beautiful place.

Thank you. I'm afraid I made a mistake in the camera settings. Hopefully I won't make that mistake again.

Thanks. Yes, it is a beautiful area, though I'm sure the time lapse can be done better. I made the mistake of setting the exposure rather than letting the camera adjust as the sun rose and the light increased. Anyway, a 1st attempt, I'm sure they'll get better. Thanks for watching.

Thank you. Always good to be outside

Yes, it's really nice. Lucky to live in Brisbane. Years since I've been there, and it seems a lot more people know about it. Fortunately, I only work part-time now, so I can get out on days when less people are off work.

Oh, nice that you're able to cut-back on work. Enjoy the extra time!@@overthebackfence8776

Thanks, it's a lovely place, and right in my backyard. It was a rainy Tuesday morning and I think I did have the place to myself.

Many thanks! I sometimes think we forget how beautiful it is right outside our front door.

@@overthebackfence8776 Yes, there is a lot of beautiful bush still about the place, even close to the big cities.

Thank you. I often go out for an early walk on the weekend. The reserves are empty and I get to enjoy the dawn chorus. It's a great time.

Thanks. It was a lovely walk. I need to get out there some more

Thanks. It is a very unique spot. Used to camp there a lot with the kids, say 20 years ago. Not sure why we stopped. Have some plans for the spring - we'll see what happens.

Our seasons are back to front. This far north in Australia the summers are too hot for walking outside of early mornings or the evenings. And yeah, it's great to see the wildlife too, though I'm not to keen on running into snakes, which are probably the biggest risk here.

I haven't noticed any remains of a railway line, though there are some indications of an old road.

I like to get out for a walk on the weekend - to escape the 9 to 5 routine for a while and reset. Fortunately that is easy to do in Brisbane as we have so much bushland within the city boundary

Yes, I am very lucky to be in Brisbane

Girraween national park is a lovely spot. If you get a chance you should visit

@@overthebackfence8776 I camped there in 1987 and really enjoyed the walks.

@@MoreliaAustralia Haven't camped there since the k ids were kids. Have footage for another Girraween video ready to edit and hoping for a family camp in late spring.
