Pre 2010, I would buy an annual pass most years. Back then you could access the now flooded sand dunes next door and test your vehicle and sand driving skills. Not sure if the pass is worth the money nowadays without the dunes included 😢

@@iant6625 Thx for the comment but it’s difficult to answer…There are lots of negatives eg, it was $50 for the day last time I went, but there’s also nowhere between Sydney and Eden you can drive on a beach. And it’s so close to Sydney, plus you can have your car next to you, put the awning up etc. If Stockton was handy it would definitely be worth a pass. I had a day trip up to Stockton and loved it. 😀👍🏻

Good video mate. What Tyre pressure did you go down to if you don’t mind me asking ?
@Challenger4WD13 күн бұрын
Thanks, I can’t remember at Boat Harbour, maybe 25? But it’s difficult to get bogged there so not as important but if you look at my Stockton Beach video I went to 18psi because you go up a dune to get to the beach. You could go lower at Stockton but it went ok on the dunes at 18 psi but the beach is a slog. If we’d been going up to Tin Town I think I’d have dropped it more. 😀👍🏻

Great video and I'm plotting out the same track to do with my son in a few weeks on a Father&Son camping weekend..just wondering what you dropped PSI down to for these trails? Did something similar and we went down to 26PSI for the majority of it. Thanks!
@Challenger4WD14 күн бұрын
Thank you, something magic about father and son trips. Yes I dropped the tyres well under 30psi, just for comfort. It’s a great trip and better over a couple of days so camping somewhere, maybe Dingo Dell, is a good idea. Let me know how you go, I’ll be interested in the conditions. 😀👍🏻

@Challenger4WDАй бұрын
The rail mount system is rated at 100kg on the bitumen but if you’re off road touring then the swaying and all that movement is an issue. So try and keep the weight on the roof at or below 70kg. Also 2 maxtrax is 8Kg. A shovel is 4kg so add all the other items up as well. Also watch that Tyler Thompson video with his Rhino Racks coming loose? From 3rd of Feb 2021.
