Cheers mate

Always relate when I hear you say how great it is to just get out in the bush. And only the hardcore hikers still go when the forecast is rain haha

Yeah I’d be keen. Haven’t done a hike in a while.

Do you have any backstory on this camp? My last name is Dundas

History The first holder of the Fairney View pastoral run was Joseph North, whose wife was christened Robert Dundas Burnett after a friend of her father (Judge John Burnett). Burnett's intention had been to name a son after his friend but he had a daughter instead. North used the Dundas name for part of his property holdings and it gave the name to the district.[2] Dundass Provisional School opened circa 1890 and closed in 1895. It reopened in 1898 slightly renamed as Dundas Provisional School. On 1 January 1909 it became Dundas State School. Between April 1929 and January 1932 it operated as a half-time school in conjunction with Bryden State School (meaning the two schools shared a single teacher). Dundas State School closed in 1942.[4] The Dundas police station was established on 15 December 1893, but was renamed Sandy Creek in February 1894. In March 1896 it was relocated to Deep Creek.[5] The Anglican Church at Dundas opened in 1955. It closed on 20 February 1977 for the construction of the Wivenhoe Dam.[6] Dundas was significantly impacted by the introduction of the Wivenhoe Dam. The construction of the Wivenhoe Dam resulted in several farms and the original road infrastructure for the area being permanently flooded. The land adjacent to the Dam was converted into State leasehold land with restrictions being imposed on land usage. The locale of Framptons Road, Dundas has been used for commercial activity in the past. A small-scale saw mill was operated by a local farmer of the area from the 1950s to the 1960s. During the 1990s there was a horse riding school in operation at Framptons Road. In the 2011 census, Dundas was counted within the larger area of Crossdale which had a population of 190 people.[7] In the 2016 census Dundas had a population of 77 people
