The joys of camping on the edge of a stream. Had same dilemma on my way home from last years Vic HC trip. We camped by a creek and I setup some rocks as a guide and during the night the water came up maybe 6 inches. But once it was in my head the water was rising I couldnt sleep so we moved up off the edge onto the higher ground above the bank. Great sleep afrer that. Next morning the water had receeded to where it was the day before. Cracking spot but. Loved the vid.

Still plenty of places that aren't overrun with the ubiquitous 4wd four door ute, geezus, they're like R-soles, everyone's got one. I've a few gems that I keep to myself. I like the awning for the Troopship, it fits it like a glove, exactly what I have in mind for my dream camping vehicle. Sure you didn't leave a tap on when you left work after two weeks night shift? Jindabyne might be empty when you get back? You must have walked one kilometre setting up camera's on the 'No Name track', it makes those beers taste better I guess. Cheers mate. Always great watching your adventures. 👍👍👍

You gutsy bastard, jumping into that water would have been bloody freezing. I'm waiting to see how the new saw runs, and how long the batteries go for. Certainly will be a bit quieter.

@@marcusboer5459 yeah mate, I drove the track right down as far as as you can go a couple of weeks earlier. Plenty of great spots all the way to the end.
Pretty spoilt for camping spots along there that’s for sure.
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍🏼
Nothing better than river-bed camping. Reckon you made a good call!!!
@@OTWD cheers Dan, there the best I reckon .
Yeah I’m definitely happy I packed up and moved before it was dark would have been a pain. 🤦🏽
Thanks for watching mate, appreciate it. 👍🏼
Great spot , your fishing technique is very similar to mine get the rod out between beers .thanks for the video next time i close my eyes i will be right there
@@davidilott1319 I call it casting not fishing cause that’s all I seem to do ! 🤦🏽👍🏼 thanks for the support of the channel David 👍🏼
Definitely made the right call mate, nothing worse than having to pull up stumps in the middle of the night. Looks like a crackn spot, might have to hit you up about that one when im over your side Krusty.
@@damo.77 feel free mate, plenty of other good ones down the track further also.
Glad I moved mate, be no fun jumping out of the swag for a piss in the dark to find yourself standing in 6 inches of freezing water. 🤣🤦🏽
Cheers Damo for your continued support of the channel mate.
Good skills on the move up the bank Gav , although it would’ve made for an action packed vid if you had have stayed by the river 😂.
@@HLsab imagine the clickbait I could of used then… the video might have gone viral! 🤦🏽
But I’m definitely happy I moved, rather the dry feet then the clickbait.
Thanks for your continued support of the channel. 👍🏼
If you have enough beers, there won't be a problem!
@@JamieBrownbridge that never a problem, always got plenty of beers… you should know that James. 🤦🏽🤣👍🏼
Hey Gav, another rippen sandbar a couple of hundred meters up from Johnson’s Crossing on the Snowy River north of Orbost as well. Spent 2 days there a couple of yeas back.
Love the vids an thanks for the quick delivery of the merch a few weeks back. 👍🏻👌
@@dalehartland7852 you must be one of the few people that purchase merch when I’m at home. lol.
I’m planning on covering most of Snowy River and documenting camps etc… to good of an opportunity working up in the Snowy Hydro and driving back home after the swings. Jacksons Crossing?
Thanks for dropping a comment mate. Appreciate the support. 👍🏼
On ya Gav, another awesome episode mate. Might have to give that spot a look. Cheers legend 👍
@@Rightomate that and plenty more along there to check out. It’s only a short drive but there are some cracking spots to camp at… I could be there for months filming. But it’s time to move on.
Cheers for the support Luked. 👍🏼
Great looking spot mate. Always better to be safe than sorry.
@@TheCollinsClan80 true Steve, the reason I went there was to camp on that beach. Killed me to move, but as you said… better to be safe than sorry.
Cheers for tuning in and dropping a comment mate🍻
@@aguyandhistroopy you could tell how disappointed you were. I was glad when the water did eventually come up to where you had originally setup up
@@TheCollinsClan80 I would have only got wet feet when i jumped out of the swag for a piss in the middle of the night ! 🤦🏽🤣
@@aguyandhistroopy 😂
The joys of camping on the edge of a stream. Had same dilemma on my way home from last years Vic HC trip. We camped by a creek and I setup some rocks as a guide and during the night the water came up maybe 6 inches. But once it was in my head the water was rising I couldnt sleep so we moved up off the edge onto the higher ground above the bank. Great sleep afrer that. Next morning the water had receeded to where it was the day before.
Cracking spot but. Loved the vid.
@@scottroygbiv hey Scotty, yeah I’m a shithouse sleeper as it is, that was the main reason I moved to put my mind at ease, and so I didn’t get wet sandy feet when I got up during the night for my routine piss.
Definitely a cracking spot. Be good during summer.
Thanks for watching mate, and taking the time to drop a comment. 👍🏼
2 words: brass monkeys!!🥶
Top spot there Gav - I think it’s better to be safe than sorry on the water level thing mate. Would have been better camping on the sand but you definitely made the right decision.
Anyways another awesome vid mate👍
@@happyguy61 honestly Chris I hate the sand, especially when it ends up in ya swag. 🤦🏽🤣So it was no big deal to move, actually slept better for it
I thought it was going to be a bit colder the water, don’t get me wrong it was cold.
Cheers for the support mate, hope your well ! 🍻👍🏼
Nothing wrong with the grassed site...right decision. With the fishing, you've been there, bought the T shirt...
@@DailyGrindAus really by rights you’re not meant to camp on the sand or have fires I’m pretty sure, so you could say I done the right thing.
The boys thought it was funny to knock me up that shirt… reckon I need to get a few proper fishing shirts knocked up similar. 🤣🤣
Cheers for watching and dropping a comment. 🍻
What a cracking campsite mate, and i think you made the right decision
@@gavinjewell5886 you m no ow what Gav… if I didn’t have a bladder problem, I would have stayed dry. But the amount of times I go for a piss a night, would have had wet sand all through my swag. 🤦🏽🤣🤣
Better safe then sorry they say🤷🏼♂️
Cheers for watching and supporting the channel. 🍻
Yeah, know that uneasy feeling haha. Thanks for sharing
@@justinwynn7299 yeah, common sense prevailed this time. 👍🏼🤣
I camped down on the Swampy Plain River two weeks ago and thought it was a good idea to have a swim, instant brain freeze, felt fucken good to get out but, another great adventure mate, keep em coming, see you on site 👍
@@kevindouglas793 be a bit colder there for sure. Ive been meaning to go to there to camp, this episode could have actually been on the Swampy Plain River, but decided to take the Barry Way as it’s a bit more direct route to get home.
Where did you camp?, Dr Forbes Hut side, or the Geehi Horse Camp side?
Thanks for watching mate. Appreciate the support for the channel.
@@kevindouglas793 where are you based now Kev, still up at Marica?
Fantastic campsite mate👍
I think I’d move too
@@nzmarkb8713 killed me too move, that was a plan for a few weeks to camp that exact spot. But I guess commonsense prevailed in the end.
Thanks again for the support for the channel 👍🏼
Great camping spot
@@brianhind7477 thanks Mate, even the grassed area was spot on to tell the truth, and no chance of getting wet feet when I get up for a piss during the night. 🤦🏽🤣
Thanks for watching mate it’s appreciated.
Another cracker, gav
I could listen to that water run for days
Thanks again
@@jamiemiller2901 cheers old mate. I wasn’t to keen to hear it running through my campsite though. 🤦🏽🤣
Appreciate your support of the channel mate.
Cheers 🍻
@aguyandhistroopy na that's never good
It was the right move even if just for piece of mind and a good sleep
would love to see a walkthrough of your troopy and setup vid!
@@grcamp hey Grace, hopefully be one coming in the future soon.
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍🏼
Thoroughly enjoy your vids. Would love to see a walk around of the Troopy.
@@AndyTom9999 thanks mate. I’ve tried a couple of times to do a walk through. Didn’t like the content… plus it’s still a work in progress… even after 23 years of owning it 🤦🏽Just waiting to do a new rear fitout and I reckon I’ll do one.
Thanks for watching mate. 👍🏼
Bonza mate.
@@williamdaniels1539 cheers mate. Appreciate you watching and commenting 👍🏼
Good onya crusty another gooden 👍 like the old saying goes in the dry times 'a day without rain is another day closer to the next rain' same as with your fishing another day closer to landing a biggen...all go for dargo is coming around quickly cheers mate 🍻
@@SouthernCrossOffroadAdventures bahahaha… I like that saying, but don’t think it’s relevant to me, I’m a lost cause at the moment.
The weekend of the 9th and 10th yeah. Think I’ll be coming from Tom Groggin over Pinnibar if everything goes to plan. 👍🏼
@@aguyandhistroopy you'll land a biggen one day for sure an certain mate 👍 may even see you before dargo not sure which way we coming through just yet but tom groggin up over pinnabar- shady creek upper is a bloody good run hey 😉👍
@@SouthernCrossOffroadAdventures shoot us a message on Insta of Messenger. Might be a bit easier mate?
@@SouthernCrossOffroadAdventures
Pinnibar is closed from Tom Groggin side.
Hit us up on Messenger or Insta so I know ya plans Cam. 👍🏼
Tip top spot
@@wasbruce was mate… still no fish for me 🤦🏽🤣
Keep them coming mate. Mint spot. I already looked it up on Wiki and favourited it for future use! 🍻
@@endless4x4 cheers Adam, it was a cracking spot that’s for sure.
If that’s ones not available, there’s a fair few more down the track further that are worth a stay.
Cheers
Krusty
A beautiful spot. Shame you had to move... Better to be safe than sorry though.
@@STALKERS4WD yeah, didn’t feel like getting wet feet when I went for a piss during the night ! 🤣🤦🏽
Cheers for watching mate 🍻
@@aguyandhistroopy Hahahaha done that before. Camped in a dry river bed. Lucky it was less than 25mm flow. Don't think I've ever packed up camp so fast...
@@STALKERS4WDyeah. Be nothing worse after a heap of beers at camp mad having to get up and pack camp up. 🤦🏽
Another great vid mate.
Definitely made the right decision moving up to higher ground. 💯👌
Noticed your voice was slightly higher pitched when you dived in there hey 😂😂😂
Madman. 😜
Another great little Snowy River gem.
Thanks for the shout out mate. 🤙👌🍻
Love ya work.
Keeping us entertained as always.
Cheers
Brad & Fi 🍻🤙
And keep flicking Krusty. One day you’ll catch one 😜😜
( loved the t-shirt 😂😂)
@@reddustadventures guys, honestly I don’t think I’ll be catching anything to soon! 🤦🏽
I honestly thought it was gunna be colder, inverted cold!
Yeah I can be sensible some times mate… just not regularly enough for most people.
Thanks guys for watching and the continued support of the channel and keeping my feet on the ground.
Cheers

Thanks for the video mate enjoyed watching
@@jimcarpenter6337 you’re welcome mate, appreciate you taking the time out to watch and comment 👍🏼
Top spot. Love the Snowy.
@@twiggys4x4touring yeah it was a cracking spot, I love the Snowy… you can’t beat it. Spectacular scenery.
Thanks for watching mate. It’s appreciated! 👍🏼
Thanks Krusty. What a magnificent spot, not just the Snowy, or the setting, but the fact you're on your own. Still plenty of places that aren't overrun with the ubiquitous 4wd four door ute, geezus, they're like R-soles, everyone's got one. I've a few gems that I keep to myself. I like the awning for the Troopship, it fits it like a glove, exactly what I have in mind for my dream camping vehicle. Sure you didn't leave a tap on when you left work after two weeks night shift? Jindabyne might be empty when you get back? You must have walked one kilometre setting up camera's on the 'No Name track', it makes those beers taste better I guess. Cheers mate. Always great watching your adventures. 👍👍👍
@@mort8143 hey Mort, hope your well mate. I’ve been lucky the last couple of camps to be on my own, guess being a Thursday or Friday night might help my cause.
The awning is awesome mate, that extra coverage is spot on. 👍🏼
If there was water coming out of SH at the moment we’d be in all sorts of trouble ! 🤦🏽🤣
Just another day on the tracks mate, nothing better than a bit of exercise. I was lucky… it’s only a short track mate. 👍🏼
Cheers for watching and showing your support for the channel in commenting. 👌
Cheers Mort.
Another great spot Gav! Love the drone footage showing the bigger picture. Think you made the right decision moving camp and on the +ve side somebody left some firewood for ya already cut so more beer drinking time and casting time 😂 🍻.
Just checking the maps now so I can try this spot too. Awesome stuff!
@@Big_Daz the drone puts it all into perspective I reckon.
Yeah the firewood was a bonus, cut some myself though. Just wish I waited before I carried most of it down to the beach, as I had to carry it all back up to the grassed area again !🤣🤦🏽
Just take the Sandy Creek Trk ( the section more towards the NSW’s border ) and follow it down, plenty of good camps further down the river also. Definitely worth a trip.
Cracking spot.
Thanks for watching and dropping a comment. Appreciate the support 👍🏼
Love it mate 🍻
@@BlackDiamondx-pi3mv thanks mate, have to love a good sandy beach camp spot … even if it was only for 3 hours ! 🤣🤦🏽
Good move to move Gav 🚣♂️😁
@@duncanm6589 I reckon so too Dunc. Finally made a sensible decision in life. 🤦🏽🤣
You gutsy bastard, jumping into that water would have been bloody freezing. I'm waiting to see how the new saw runs, and how long the batteries go for. Certainly will be a bit quieter. For mine, the jury is still out on that one, but the thought has crossed my mind. Cheers mate another good one. BobbyB.
Was a little cold BobbyB but my tackle wasn’t inverted. 🤣🤦🏽
I’ve been doing a bit of research on the new Stihl’s… they go well, about 30 min battery life on average. Just need to stay on top of the chain. They have a sale on at the moment, batteries and chargers half price. So 2 batteries and a quick charger.
I’m about to head out now, gale winds, fair chance I might to use it, I’ll fill ya in. 🤣
Thanks for the ongoing support of the channel mate. It greatly appreciated! 👍🏼
@@aguyandhistroopy Cheers mate. Watch the river levels after the rain we've had. BB
@@bobbyb9371 true mate. Its was the release from Jindy that was the issue. Seen the rooster tail when I drive past the dam wall, hit didn’t think twice about it ! 🤦🏽

Great looking spot ,, and you made the right call bro , where about is this spot if you don’t mine telling???
@@davidwoods9590 thanks mate, cracking spot that’s for sure.
Barry Way - Snowy River Rd and down Sandy Creek Trk, plenty of good spots down there to choose from!
Very nice spot Gav, definitely fish in there.
Thanks Barn, be f&@ked if I can find any. 🤦🏽🤣
Might need some lessons. 🤷🏼♂️
I know the track you dropped down, a to0 spot mate.
You said you had about a foot or water to rise. You forgot about the stretcher mate 😉 I reckon you had had 1.5 to go 😂
Good decision.
@@OffroadTouringLife thanks Rich. Some great spots down that track to camp on, I’ll be back there again.
Next time I’ll pay a bit more attention to what they’re releasing upstream at Jindy. Yes I would have been dry on the stretcher, but I’m unsure about you… but I get up a dozen times to piss a night. 🤦🏽🤷🏼♂️🤣
Cheers for watching Rich. 🍻
Nothing worse than moving in the dark, last night worried about the same thing as the Dargo came up quick after yesterday's storms, yep safe for now but a bit of a sleepiness night checking every hour. 😂
@@epbturnbull yeah, I just thought might as well do it when I did, nothing worse not being able to sleep thinking about it. I would have been dry in the swag, but definitely would have had wet feet. 🤦🏽

As frustrating as it was, well worth moving. Too much good gear and enjoyment from your trips to lose🇳🇿

@@melburnian1979 honestly I don’t think your allowed to camp and have fires on the sandy beaches anyway … so it was probably a good thing. 🤷🏼♂️🤦🏽 it was still a cracking spot, and my feet were still dry ! 🤣👍🏼

@ won’t give you a pin drop mate, don’t want everyone know the exact location.
