    I re-watched this video again today after walking into Tarkine falls since I first watched it. I'm quite familiar with the topography now and your video has been even more interesting and useful to me as I am planning on heading back into that area to pursue other hobbies I have. I agree that whoever crossed that second river crossing "L" in a 4x4 is crazy. Great work anyhow and I am glad your respect and safely appreciate for our bush here in Tas.

    A 1.4kg chunk of beef ? I have hiked and bush-camped throughout Western Australia for more than 3 decades and I have never taken a chunk of beef in all those trips. Some sausages, biltong, tins of Corned beef or smoked chicken, yes. A chunk of raw beef, NO.

    Mate, congratulations to you and the Missus on the newest Family member 👶 It's such an amazing feeling when you become a Dad... even the second time round, it still brings a smile to my face! 😉 As for the video, what a location! Such stunning scenery and the sound of flowing water was so calming... I think I would have slept like a baby!! 🤣 If I'd found a spot like that, especially with its own natural 'spa' bath, I'd come back and spend 2-3 nights there. Gorgeous spot! Absolutely understand if there'll be a wee wait between drinks Mate. So make sure you spend quality time and cherish the memories, because in the blink of an eye, one of them will be in high school and be 'one of those' teens, and the other will be an absolute pain in the backside!! 😂🤣 (But I love them more than anything!) Thanks Erik! 😎

  • @daviddilley8310
    @daviddilley8310 4 місяці тому

    Great vid, but I am always concerned when people camp right on a river or creek. Do it once too often and a flash flood will ruin your day in a hurry. Never camp less than 50m from a river or creek, or make sure you are high enough to avoid a flood. this is usually obvious if you look for trees and such that have been left behind by the last one. Still pools often mean mozzies, and your presence deters wildlife from drinking (look for tracks). Just sayin'...
