Ok so I went for a run to Station Creek just for you guys. The weather for the next few days looks like it'll be a bit damp at times so be prepared for wet weather camping.

There are 2 ways to get there. From the northern side heading south you'll turn left onto Newfoundland Rd (through Newfoundland SF) then right onto Burns Rd and then Left onto Barcoongere Way and just follow the signs to Yuraygir NP.
On the southern side heading North turn right onto Barcoongere Way and follow through :)

The road surface is loose and pebbly so take caution when approaching corners and crests as it can get narrow and off camber in places.

Now for the bad news. My powersteering pump seems to have spat a seal. I'll need to investigate before being able to commit to coming along as I cant afford a replacement

Posted by: "NAVMAN" at Now for the bad news. My powersteering pump seems to have spat a seal. I'll need to investigate before being able to commit to coming along as I cant afford a replacement.

Well I removed the pump and stripped it and couldn't find anything wrong except a bolt seemed a bit loose. Put back together and $10 of powersteering fluid later it is running ok, need more time to bleed the bubbles out.

So i'm ready to roll

Pre-dirtied and all :)

^Awesome, that's good news mate!!

Well, we're about 15min off leaving... Coffs, HERE WE COME!!!

Ok, so for communication you can catch me on my mobile 0 4 1 3 1 3 6 4 9 1 and for UHF i'll suggest ch40 until we meet up. SHall we use our screen names as callsigns or just names?

My username is a little misleading for this forum

Drive carefully guys and see you in Coffs on the weekend. :)

Well it appears that my power steering issue has arisen again so unfortunately im out of today's activities. Cant afford to blow another pump.

Hey guys,

Great to see everyone coming together for some great outdoor action.

How was the trip and whats next on the agenda?

Ha ha unfortunately mate, it ended up just bein the 3 original cars as several blokes had work commitments/car issues etc... But we still had a ball exploring the area... I have been a little slack admittedly with the trip report, will get onto it asap... :)

Next trip...? We're talking about a DI run one weekend, but no dates set yet... Of course there's always Glassy :)

Sounds good, I'm keen to get mine off the road and see what it can do.
I'll have to keep my eye on the forums for the DI run.
