I saw a notification on the link that seacomms supplied that says fuel isn't available from Happy Valley.

What's the story with that; they remove the pumps or something or is it just a temporary notification to advise that they're waiting for a delivery? I've found in the past that if Happy Valley runs out then Catherderal Beach & Orchid Beach often run low pretty soon after. I usually carry some spare fuel on Fraser, but in a 2-door loaded with gear & without a trailer, it's not much.

When I was there at Easter, the happy valley store/resort was up for sale and closed.
So you can assume that happy valley is with out a general store and you will need to go else where for supplies of food and fuel.

Hey guys,
Just wondering what the weather might be like at Fraser for the dates of 16, 17, 18 Oct? Me and the missus are organised to stay at Dundubara campground. Never been there before, been to Fraser years ago. Any tips?
