  TRIP DESCRIPTION/LOCATION: 

  The plan at this stage is to head up to Birdsville, take about 3 days to do this, then head west down the Oodnadatta Track to Mt Dare for a refreshing swim in those cool refreshing waters (Insert Stunned look here) and then work our way north to join the Madigan line. The spend a week (ish) to head back to Birdsville. There are lots to see and do along the way.
  This trip will be modified as best we can to accommodate these wishes of those that choose to come along as long as it fits into the broad brush plan of the trip. Not wanting to put things in stone here as I would plan a few simple meetings at a local pup so we can put the details down. This trip announcement (as vague as it is) now was to give people as much notice as possible of this upcoming trip so we can arrange "life" around being away for a few weeks.

  TRIP LEADER'S NAME:   Andrew McDiarmid   (  2145 )

  DESCRIPTION/LOCATION: We will travel about 15 min north to Castella park then enter Toolangi state forest via Spraggs Rd.
  We will be exploring blue and black tracks as rated by Newtracs. Probably will be attempting most things that seem reasonable and you don’t need a competition truck for.
  I would expect some recoveries may be required. Not looking to make it a winch challenge. Quite happy to backtrack if things are too wet or impassable without significant damage.
  There are a couple of campgrounds that hopefully would be a lunch stop. Unsure at this stage if toilets are present. (Two hills Rd and Luke’s creek Rd/ marginal Rd)
  Will aim for last track to be finished by 3.30 so some daylight can make an exit more pleasant.

  TRIP LEADER'S NAME:   Nas Foscarini   (  1933 )

  DESCRIPTION/LOCATION: This is our 2nd Annual Fishing Competition to be held at the Nicholson River Holiday Park 10th to 12th October 2025. No driving necessary once we arrive at camp as everything is available locally. Boat, kayak or land based fishing available and there will be plenty of 'experts' to help if fishing is not your thing.
  This is a family friendly event of which most members are expected to arrive at camp on Friday night with the official fishing competition starting at 6am Saturday. There will be a small prize for whomever catches the biggest edible fish for the day presented by 5pm. This is a friendly competition and the judges decision will be final. That will be both Ed Reddick and myself. If you choose not to keep the fish, photos against a ruler are acceptable as proof but we would prefer to see the fish if possible. 
  Everyone is expected to organise their own bookings at the Nichols on River Holiday Park with campsites, caravan sites and units available. Be sure to let them know you are part of the Pajero Club when booking. Everyone will also be invited to a group dinner around 7pm at the Nicholson River Hotel just next door to the holiday park. A cafe/general store is also available next door for anything extra you may need including bait and tackle.
  The event finishes with drinks after dinner on Saturday night and most people expected to leave on Sunday. All are welcome to stay or arrive earlier if it suits. 
  If anyone has any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact Nas on 0413 889 372.
  See youa ll there.

  TRIP LEADER'S NAME:   Simon Garraway   (  799 )

  DESCRIPTION/LOCATION: Continued maintenance of the Jerico Cemetery and other points of interest within our allocated area, all of which is becoming easier each trip. Time permitting, we will include side trips to Matlock, Woods Point and a couple of mine sites, one of which rarely has visitors ... yes, a walk.... not difficult, just navigating a fallen tree, as always, your choice.
  Equipment like mowers, whipper snippers, hedge cutters, chain saw, cleaning equipment and fuel are supplied, all you need is PPE and enclosed footwear.
  Being a bush camp, you need to be self-sufficient in all aspects, there is no toilet.
  The campsite is good for all types of accommodations ranging from tents to reasonable clearance caravans. Most of the driving is easy, with magnificent views at times. A couple of moderate patches will find you in low range, but a standard Pajero has done it all.
  Those who have participated before, have always enjoyed the trip, learnt a lot and seen things in places and wondered how. 
  

  TRIP MEETING ADDRESS: Base Camp, near the corner of Walhalla / Woods Point Road and Victor Spur track, approx. 32klm's past Thompson Dam wall. Detailed maps and directions will be emailed to you, as the base camp is approx. 250 metres from the intersection

  TRIP LEADER'S NAME:   Damian De Rozairo  498 

  DESCRIPTION/LOCATION: This trip will start in Johannesburg on July 31. The planed route will take us through the Kalahari and the Okavango Delta all the way north to Victoria falls in Zimbabwe. We will return to Johannesburg via a different route taking in the salt pans of Nxai Pan.
  The trip is setup for August since its the best time of the year to see wildlife.
  I have organized a place that will rent us fully equipped Toyota Hilux vehicles with all the camping gear including roof top tents, water tanks and a fridge.
  The trip could include a couple of nights at a luxury camp site in the Okavango delta, depending on peoples budgets.
  The budget for the trip should be around $15,000 excluding airfares from Melb.
