Good idea staying clear of that Bib camp. Last time I was there on the same weekend a couple of years back, there were about 60 people. 3 deep in the hut, and a party of noobs who insisted on their own fire and being none too careful about it.Hey guys,
Im keen to meet up with the rest of the WA bushcraft crew as well, also think my brother, Decco, will be too. We are both generally free weekends and can say we'd be up for any spot with in reasonable distance from Perth. Also if anyone is keen we are heading out for a 2 nighter next weekend, 26th-28th April, to the Monadnocks in the Perth hills. We park at a designated parking spot, off Albany hwy, that the Bib track go's through and follow the track in a few Kms, then take a bearing and wander of track til we find a decent spot to set up camp. We do practice leave no trace camping as well, if anyone is keen PM me so we can just suss it out over the phone.
Cheers,
Liam
Take a look at the river valley halfway between Monadnocks and Canning huts, as the crow flies, east of Eagle Hill. I went for a stomp in there a couple of weeks ago. There's a very nice secluded valley (big gully?) that would be ideal for an off-track camp. PM me if you want waypoints. Had I a larger pack (another story!), I'd join you.
Sorry Bloffy, getting off topic.
