Camping at Olney HQ Campground

We headed up to Newcastle to have the electrics in the camper and dc to dc charger looked at. On the way back we decided to head into olney state Forest and camp at the HQ campground.


We have passed this campground a few times before and it has mostly been busy or full. This time round it was pretty quiet probably due to it still being pretty cold at night.


We didn't get up to much other than walk the dogs through the bush and then chill sitting around the camp fire as it got later. We tested out the electrics again but still seem to be having issues so will probably need to get them relooked at.

Red Mill Road 4wd Tracks

This weekend we all decided to take the trucks for a spin after the weeks worth of rain. We decided to explore the tracks along Red Mill Road that connects yarramalong to Wyong through Ourimbah State Forest.

The main roads were unsurfaced, Rocky in places and somewhat slipperary post all the rain fall. The tougher tracks turned off the main tracks into much narrower, steep and muddy 4wd and bike trails.


As the road rejoined Middle ridge road, we took the dogs out for a quick walk through the bush.


On the way back we stopped for refreshments at the Wyong milk factory and chilled by Wyong creek


The dogs also enjoyed a refreshment from the muddy creek :)
