I've never seen a dump point as good as this one. It was a little brick building with the lidded dump inside, very discreet, and undercover. It was as clean as a dump point could be, and even had a sink if one needed it.

Ok I'm a virgin grey nomad with a silly question! If I buy a NON Offroad camper trailer, lets say a jayco, can I still tow it with say a Toyota Hi-lux 4x4 or Holden Rodeo 4x4. I don't really need offroad capability as I'm sticking to the bitumen for the forseeable future. cheers Hats Lewis

We recently visited the gold fields west of mareeba and stopped in at a little bakery in DIMBULAH which has some of the best cakes, sweets and coffee ever tasted by man! The pies are probably the best I've ever eaten and the owner always leaves you with a smile. Definately worth the stop!!!!

Off roading would be un...

Then use the Gatton-Clifton Road 44 kms south of Toowoomba. It's generally a good road, nice scenic drive, and there's a free camp at Heifer Creek. #615 in Camps 6.
