The trip out of Geehi to Tom Groggin campground is what could be classed as a typical Snowy Mountains fanfare consisting of rolling hills, more rolling hills, S bends galore and plenty of greenery typically consisting of gum trees, tussock and weeds. Depending on how many stops for photos and nature breaks it takes the…

Days 2 & 3; Tumut to Geehi
Packed and ready to go, the trip from Tumut was uneventful winding along through Batlow, Tumbarumba, Khancoban and eventually Geehi. The decision to bypass Geehi Flats Campground and go straight to Behrs Flat was a welcome one. Behrs Flat feels like you are camped within a postcard! While Brad set up camp, I sat back…

Camp #10 – 2023; We’ve hit double digits!
A return to old trusty, Hill End on camp number 10 for 2023. It has been a big year for camping and there is nothing better than getting out there with nature. TBH it’s been a blessing in disguise travelling so often for work, there has been many a weekend where it’s just a little…
Camp #09 – 2023; One to tick off the list

Camp #08 – 2023; The explorer edition

Sometimes there is a bit of reckless abandon, this was my case heading into Lidsdale State Forest and Marrangaroo National Park without another car to assist if the going got tough, without winch and…
Camp #07 – 2023; It’s been a long while
Seventeen years long to be precise! The last time I camped in this particular spot at Ration Point times were different and camping was simple – pack your tent, air mattress, a table or two, chair and an esky. With the notoriety of technology I am guilty of overlooking those once simple things and arrive…
Camp #06 – 2023; Dalys Clearing, Belangelo State Forest
Yes, you read right, Belangelo State Forest the infamous forest you’ve heard about for all the wrong reasons! Truth be known this is a slightly late post, three weeks late to be frank. I’ve been away for work and caught Covid. Anyway, Dalys Clearing was a camp site that I wanted to tick off the…
