DON'T MISS this National Park! | Lost Drone

Hey everyone!
Welcome back to another video. In this one we head to the Barrington Tops National Park in NSW up to the Great Dividing Range with our caravan.
We hike in the Gloucester Tops and Gloucester Falls where we unfortunately lose our DJI Mavic Air 2 Drone in the waterfall.
We take an icy cold plunge in a freshwater stream before warming up around the campfire at Camp Cobar.
Month of travel - July 2023
Thanks heaps for following along everyone!

    Nice bit of our country side. So sorry the drone gave up. Chelsea your really giving poor Brice heaps about it. It was not his fault. Lithium batteries do not do well in the cold. Lucky you are not driving an electric car. The cold dip was a killer laugh. No way would I do it so good on you. Love the laugh at the rocking. Remember "if it's rocking don't bother knocking".

    We’ve camped at Camp Cobark in June, and we were too chickeny to get into the water. The Barrington Tops area was almost our backyard in our younger years, with so many weekends spent up there, always tent camping. Even in the summer, the water is very, very fresh! There isn’t a bad time to explore there. We’ve loved your episodes of your adventures around here; it’s great to see it all through someone else’s eyes (and lens). We’re looking forward to see where you end up next. Happy travels 😍😍😍
