Its on again for the 3rd year running.
This is it ... the family fun 4wd event just like the TV show.
What you need is any form of basic off road / all terrain vehicle, a GPS and a sense of adventure (a sense of humour will go a long way too). BYO a family - even someone else's family will do.
Based in the Big Desert (NW Victoria), it is bitumen all the way to camp. Most people will arrive Friday night of the Queen's Birthday weekend and set up camp. There are clean toilets at camp but everything else needs to be brought along. The event concludes Monday afternoon.
You will start each of the days with a GPS destination. Look it up on the map and work out how to get there within say 10-20 metres according to your GPS. At that point there will be instructions such as a special task along with your next destination. And so the day goes, from one adventure to the next driving on sandy roads and trails in the vast expanse of the Big Desert wilderness. Last year there were sand dune / lookout vehicle climbs, a Yabbee catching competition and treasure hunts for the kids.
Again on the Monday night there is a caterred BBQ with alcoholic drinks provided - cool huh!
