Your video takes me back to the mid 70's hunting with my father. Our hunting camp was literally where the road ended. 25 miles from paved roads and in a section prohibited to non 4 wheel drive vehicles. Motor bikes were ok but the 3 wheelers and quads didn't exist in those days so it was horses or 4 wheel drive. Believe it or not it was in northern California at a place called Paynes creek. Love your video sir. Your having way to much fun in the bush. Blessings to you

G'day Negs, Making a damper in the camp oven is so good. Cover it in jam and cream makes a very nice meal. Add what ever you want into a damper, they are all good. Yeah, in the current climate, relaxing out in the bush with some campfire cooking, is a great way to relax and enjoy your surrounds. I hope you get back out soon and unwind. Thanks for your reply, i appreciate your feedback. Cheers Tim.

Hey Timbo, that certainly is a gorgeous spot to set up. I reckon you have camped in hundreds of spots like that - but not the same one twice, just gold. The sounds of the birds and the stream is wonderful, so glad to have that as your backyard. I think Aussie's have adopted Spag Bol as one of our National dishes, great for what you're doing! I am pretty much a coffee guy, but your tea looked pretty good for a frosty morn. Oh Jeez - I can almost smell that bacon and eggs mate - fantastic, just missing the tom sauce. I will be doing your damper next time. The kids can like it or lump it - we love the fruit. Pearler fires mate, High Country timber. Is there anything that isn't better on the fire, that shank looked superb, Christ I'm hungry now. My camp oven is yelling at me! Thanks for sharing mate! Not a better spot in the world, I reckon. Cheers Timbo, just loved the vid.

G'day Murray, Yeah mate, i have camped in many spot. But not many as good as the spots im going on the solo trips. Stunning country. Good ol spag bol is so good anytime, but in the campfire, it goes to another level. Lol Good luck with that damper mate, good ol fruit loaf os so good. Lol Thanks heaps mate, i greatly appreciate your feedback and reply. Cheers Tim.
