QLD drought... broken yet?Today Noosa feels more like Mallacouta; not only is the rain coming down with a heavy consistency, there's also strong winds blowing. There's little to no chance of me heading out in the yak in this sort of weather, which gives me a chance to play catch up. I've got quite a few things to get out of the way so this is a good opportunity to do so. With any luck this rain will stir the pot nicely and muddy things up somewhat - I don't think the crystal clear waters helped my chances yesterday. It's a bummer that I can't get out there right now, but it's good to see Queensland getting the water it so badly needs. Now that I've been on the road for about a month I can speak with a fair degree of conviction on some of the gear I've been using and there's several items I've been meaning to review. I expect to get some of these written up today, followed by a fairly big update to the gear list section.    
22-08-2007 15:54 national parks are the way to go except for no power, a much better and cheaper way to travel. less noise, less people...... 22-08-2007 17:04 Yep, I've reached the same conclusion. I'm spending a bit of time and money here in Noosa ensuring that it'll be easier for me to do exactly that. The real challenge is power supply, but theres a few ways I can go about skinning that cat. 23-08-2007 10:29 NP's are the way to go....solar is the best option for power via good quality battery and inverter. apert from power you shouldn't need to spend to much more surely, keep it simple mate. 23-08-2007 11:34 Yeah, apart from that I'm good to go - I won't need to spend anything else. And I only need power for PC access. If I wasn't operating this site at the same time I'd happily go without. I'll be ding just that over the next couple of days because I'm going to head upstream on a river camping trip for a couple of days tomorrow I think. 23-08-2007 22:08 Hey there 5th I have been on business up in that region recently (specifically the Gold Coast) and damn over the last week it has done nothing but rain. Have you caught that weather as well? 24-08-2007 08:27 Hey there 5th Yeah, mate, sure have. Its bucketed down for 3 days here. The rivers needed a flush though - this is good Only registered users can write comments. Powered by AkoComment Tweaked Special Edition v.1.4.6 |
