Driving the 150 Year old 4x4 Track...

Appreciate that you stopped by that potential camp site and picked up the rubbish. It's absolutely disgusting how some people leave their campsites littered with rubbish. The current culture of Aussie 4x4 camping needs a serious overhaul because it is way to common to pull up to a campsite or along side a track and just see pieces of rubbish laying around. If we don't change our ways, it wouldn't surprise me to see some sort of camping restriction/ban put in place due to how poorly people are treating the wilderness. Some people need to do better, but thank you for making the world a slightly cleaner place 😁

Onya Liam proper Aussie bloke cleaning up after others to look after the bush hats off mate 🍻

Cleaning up litter (left by uneducated grubs) and highlighting your respect for the beautiful places we are currently privileged to be permitted to camp was fantastic. You are leading opinions and educating people in the 4WD community. You are making a difference. Kudos to you!

As an American I’m happy you think so highly of our nature. Most of it unfortunately doesn’t look like that. Wish it did tho. That looks awesome.

Props to both of you for cleaning up the bush , you just did yourselves, your families and the 4wd community very proud .. Respect to both of you .. 👏

My my, you young fellas arrived in our homebase, so good to see. The bridle track of today is a far cry from prior to the rockfall in 2010, it took Bathurst Regional Council a frigging long time to get their act together, but 13 years later it was finally reopened. The whole route was slowly updated as part of the reopening. The old Monaghans Bluff was the narrowest, highest, portion of track and that's where the rock fall occured. Prior to council amalgamation the previous council responsible (Evans Shire) would have rectified the situation immediately as they'd done in the past, unfortunately the new Regional Council refused to take responsibility for track works, claiming it wasn't in their zone, drips, you've just acquired it through amalgamation. What you may not have been aware of, you began on the Turon River from Hill End but further along the water flow changed direction as you'd past by the end of the Turon, it terminates where it flows into the Macquarie River coming from Bathurst, you're actually viewing the Macquarie from the new bypass lookout. The junction point of the rivers can be observed from a clearing immediately out of the huge rock cutting you'd passed through. Patty, you didn't have to return along the bridle track to get to Bathurst providing the Macquarie wasn't in flood, to retain access to residents council upgraded a trail from Root Hogg Crossing to Bathurst, haha, initially on private land, the land owner waited until he had a glorious new road, then blocked it off to public, took council to court and won, hence council had to contruct a whole new route including fencing bypassing land owners property to access Bathurst. Oh the money spent initially, then court costs, then a second new road, council could have bypassed Monaghans Bluff twice over initially, if it wasn't so ludicrous you'd laugh. On the litter front, well done but unfortunately it's probably already littered again, bloody grubs just expect mummy to come by and clean up after them as she does at home. Most just don't recognise they're doing anything wrong. I'm always dousing unattended camp fires when passing along trail, if I have space, tske rubbish also, but alas, return a fortnight after and it's just the same. The newer dual cab utes mustn't have carrying capacity anymore, can only take unregistered bikes, carts etc. home, no room for the rubbish they generate, idiots. Regards, Wealie.

Onya boys for the clean-up ..

People need to appreciate and respect the nature by not littering at the camp sites. I feel frustrated seeing rubbish left by campers. We need to take responsibility and ownership of our own rubbish. Thank you Aussie Arvos for the doing the right thing. I hope people will see what you do and do the right thing. The video was informative and fun to watch. 👍

has to be one of the best camp spots ive seen to !

Thank you for the clean up, it's sad how some people leave places

That's why tracks , camping area gets closed down for a few people can't or to lazy to take rubbish away. Thank U. Great area.

Wow this was so sick! I spent 2 terms at school learning about this so it's amazing to see the 4 weel drive tracks

286kg of gold!!! Wowsers! I did a quick calculation, and in today's money, that nugget would be worth approximately $3,072,212.00. Love camping along the Bridle Track and Macquarie River. Great work on the chicken. 👍

You want to increase your warmth around the campfire. Old wollen blanket made into a cloak. Who cares what it looks like as long as you are warm. You can throw on bed to warm it up. Baby nappy pins. Check on YouTube. Tip 2: Make a gas stove wind break. Put it at the back of the campfire. When it heats up, it becomes a chimney and throws the heat back.

Love the exploring content! Life hack for crispy cooking - get a rack to drip the chicken rather than paper towel. The paper towel will basically steam the coating as it’s cooling and make it soggy ✌️😎

Well done Patty and Liam. Appreciate your good work !

Honestly the most underrated channel on YouTube!! So bloody sick

Great fried chicken recipe, Coles and Woolies sell Butter Milk in the milk section. You can get the MSG from a Chinese food shop.

Great show I enjoyed my mum was born in the goldfields at Ophir in 1927 so this area around Hill End brings back memories we live off off the grid in the bush and love the outdoors done a lot of off road driving in my 74 years high country and beaches so good luck in your travels good to see young fellas having a go keep up the good work.

Well done boys! I did the Bridle Track with my daughter two weeks ago and was appalled by the rubbish being left behind. We collected 3 full bags of other people's stuff. Bloody disgrace. Having said that, Council could also help by collecting the wrecked cars which have been dumped (Hogg Root Crossing + one in the river itself further up) as it it almost signals for others to dump their broken awnings and what not.
