Waeco CR65 litre Upright Fridge

So if there’s one bit of advice we can give, especially if you’re a first timer setting up a touring vehicle, then it’s important not to jump into designing a canopy […]
How to keep the insects away at your campsite
We’d all like to have an insect free campsite especially when we know there’s lots of nasties that bite! While there’s a bundle of commercial products available to manage insects, try some of our tips to help keep those nasties at bay. Oh, bugs are generally drawn to a white light at night time, so […]
DRIFTA Canvas Bags
Over the many years we’ve been travelling, finding the right packing solution for all our gear has been a challenge.

QLD – Old Tele Track, Cape York
Having first visited Queensland’s Cape York in the early 1990s, there’s little doubt the Old Tele Track run up to the tip of Cape York still provides some challenges today, just as it did on that first trip all those years ago. Taking a trip to the tip of Cape York is far from boring if […]
QLD – Cape York
