CHICHESTER STATE FOREST | 100% FREE CAMPING AT ITS BEST

After exploring Barrington Tops a few weeks back, we had to head back, this time we ventured around the adjoining Chichester State Forest for a few days.
Another chilly camp, but again, so stunning! Creek crossings, waterfalls, bush walking, campfire cooking and a brewery 🍻 😉 Adam had a dip in the icy creek 🥶 the kids are still not overly keen on the freezing temperatures. We’re actually really loving the winter camping with the Conqueror Off Road UEV-490 camper (we’re roughing it without a heater though) and the new ute setup giving us plenty of power

Great Weekend family trip. What a legend, Adam swimming in the river. Megan needs to practice hill starts. Nice bush walks, and water falls.

[@shaddonaghue]

Awesome video guys , great location. We really enjoyed this one 👌

[@SmartTouringSystems]

[@SmartTouringSystems]

Thanks for coming to say hi mate.

Corn on the cob cooking tip. The corn cooks moister and no chance of burning if you leave the husks and silk on the cob . Just, top and tail it. Stays moister and much better flavour.

[@glendalyndon4015]

So beautiful and so close great job. Loving it

[@philsshed]

Can’t go past the tomato cup a soup.. felt like I was there around the fire from the comfort of my recliner haha

[@SmartTouringSystems]

Nice 👍🏼

[@garyalanretouch]

Love the look of the new rig. Where'd you get the mirrors from, not been able to find any for the 2024 model yet myself.

[@SmartTouringSystems]

Hi Gary. The doors on the 70 series have been the same shape since about 1984 I think so any 2023 mirrors should fit as far as I'm aware.

[@zoezoe610]

Thanks that was inspiring, winter camping is so nice.....

[@SmartTouringSystems]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@erolmunur5879]

It's a muddy bog hole most times

[@boc3499]

Dont say anything bad about DCS whatever you do, they are taking another youtuber to court

[@anthonycrem7836]

They'll come for you now 😂

[@georgewilks6816]

Unfortunately quite common for rubbish laying around at those ladys well camp sites, i think 2 wheel drive access doesn't help.

[@andrewshepley7751]

What was the name of the last campsite you guys where at

[@SmartTouringSystems]

The campsite we stayed at in this episode was called Currawong campground.

[@projecthiluxpigrig2.095]

Younger peoples rubbish there was red bull cans in there 🕵️‍♂️

[@SmartTouringSystems]

Yeah not good hey.

[@projecthiluxpigrig2.095]

@@SmartTouringSystems especially since it’s my backyard! Your correct about the creek crossing it gets the weekend campers nervous in crossing it

[@Philipk65]

To be fair it might not have been younger people. Many younger campers want the bush to be clean too and quite a few older people can be grubs. I'm not young by the way. Also older people also do drink caffeine rubbish drinks too. The take away is, if you can bring it in you can take it out.
