    EPIC!!! Thanks for including a Nigel Dive - we give that an 8/10, need to tuck the chin a bit more. It's a beautiful area, we couldn't fit into that camp so went up the road a bit further and got the van stuck!

    Nice video, I used to live in Raventhorpe. Once a week i would fo swimming lessons with all the other kids along side that huge old jetty. One fishermen caught a huge 3 meter Grey nurse shark just the other side of the jetty as we was swimming about half way out. They told our instŕuctor who was walking along the jetty supervising uscall to call us out. We all went to have a look as they bought the boat in. Wow what a big shark it got stuck in their net, They pulled in up on the boat trailer and off to the fish shop😅😅😅. You should have taken video gloing out on that jetty. In fact Jetties are an iconic thing where ever there is one do video of it. Someone should do jetties of Australia.

      Hi and thanks for the comment, I will keep it in mind next time I am on a jetty, I see they are very popular for photographers doing long exposures, I have taken a few myself around the state including Augusta and Rockingham, keep the shiny side up. Pete

    Hi, nice video. I see the free RV area at Hopetoun is strictly self contained only. Shower, toilet and grey water tank fitted to the vehicle. No discharge of grey water, black water or effluent into any external receptacle permitted at any time. From what I can see several of the vehicles in the footage would not comply. I have been led to believe the Ranger is red hot on compliance. Did you have any interaction with the Ranger or are you aware if he is now taking a more lenient approach. I do not have an on board tank for grey water but do have a mobile tank I purchased for some of the free camps that allow them. Thanks.

      Hi never saw a Ranger , people also parked outside the designated area , some people took up a bit more area that is acceptable for a free camping area which was a shame . We carry a designated grey water container and use a portaloo . Glad you liked the video , the site on the lake allowed tents as well and has toilets .
