Fairly long day yesterday, 6 hrs or so until we arrived at Fletchers Ck free camp about 30k north of Charters Towers. It was absolutely packed with caravans, (as in over 100) as one would expect with free amenities and a 1 month limit on stay. One lot even had an enclosed veggie garden going, some one else had a few chooks, may be staying a little longer than 1 month allowed. Apparently the Council are trying to enforce it and things are turning ugly between the long term freeloaders and the Ranger.
We drove in through that lot and found a nice quiet spot near the NP boundary, very peaceful and quiet, no generators or dogs etc.
Shorter day today, pulled up at Claremont and are camping here for the night, on to the gem fields at Anakie tomorrow for an extended stay of a few days, time to relax and unwind, maybe even find a few nice Sapphires, who knows.
Stay safe my friends.
