It should be renamed The Track of a Thousand crossings.😁 I didn't see any spots to camp other than Dawson City but would be fab to spend a bit more time there maybe casting a line or gold panning if that's permitted of course.😎👏👍Cheers Gav

Yes you can pan in there, just not suicing ( or mechanical sluicing ) not actually sure of the rules regarding that. Thanks for watching Steve. Keep well mate. 👍🏼

Hey Gavin, good show. A few mates and I went to the Southern end, same as where you started to do the haunted stream track but the track was closed.

Well done on the video. The last time I did haunted stream, there were a ship load of trees over the track, so we had to cut a lot of section out of it. I think it's closed now for work to be done. . I will probably get out there again when thay open it up again. Thanks for the video Craig

You could drive this in a Subaru Brumby at the moment. But with some major rain events it will get back to the way it was before the repairs. The recent works and closures were for weed control and slashing of certain areas and surrounding tracks from my knowledge. Cheers 🍻

Thanks PK, went up Dawson City Track to Angora Range Track then back down to the Great Alpine Way. That way wasn’t too bad, I’ve been down Dawson City Track from Engineers Road, that was definitely steeper then the way I went out.

Thanks mate great work

Bahahah, will only kill the fish if the roof - gutter goes under water if you’re worried about the rust killing the fish. 🤣🤣👍🏼

Hey Mate, a great adventure. It didn't look like there were many places to pull over. Was that the case or just the video illusion?

@@timhaynes739 it was like that in spots, but I reckon you’d still find enough room if you confronted someone coming the other way. Don’t let that stop you from driving it. I only past the one group and they were pulled over having lunch.

How many river crossings all up? Good video!!

They say there is 50 plus, but I reckon of the actual Haunted Stream around 35 or so? Some still wouldn’t class as a river crossing. 🤦🏽

You don't talk about aliens to you pictures of your head 🥴👍⛏️🇦🇺

Just watching one of your videos and thinking how much effort you put in not only where you go but the constant to and from the vehicle Setting up shots with your cameras etc…. Excellent work and thank you for the trouble you go to ….very much appreciated 👍

Cheers Derek, yeah, a lot of hard work that’s for sure, but that’s the content I want to create. I’ve had people travel with me who want to help but i still run the cameras. Always looking for that better angle. Thanks for taking the time out to watch and comment mate, it’s greatly appreciated. 👍🏼

Are there alot of camp sites on the track ?

@aguyandhistroopy

Not many when you actually drive it. 3 stand out ones in the first river crossing on the other side, Bayliss’s campground ( not real level and not on the river ) and Dawson City at the end. Wikicamp shows a lot more, unless they are just of the main track. Hope that helps !

How long does it take to do the Haunted stream track

Hard for me to answer that with the amount of times I stop to film. But I reckon l’d be safe to say from the start at Great Alpine Way to Dawson City it would be around 1.5hours.

Only for maintenance, as in slashing etc. it’s mainly the tracks around it from what I believe. Its in easy too good of condition to close it at the moment. Have to let some people enjoy it a little first.! 👍🏼🤣

Thanks, Gav, for this upload. It was great camera work. Considering the number of times you would have moved the camera, the angles you have captured are perfect. Also love the way you explain actual depths instead if just declaring "it's deep" l mean seriously what the fuck does that mean wirh all the different vehicles and clearances you have in different models! 😆 Also it's a pity after we all pick up other people's shit, we couldn't hand it in for DNA testing! The morons that leave rubbish will get a track closed quicker than you can do up your fly on yah jeans grrr! The reason why anyone really heads bush is to experience pristine wilderness and quiet times! Glad to see you out and about again Mate, enjoy your time exploring. Cheers

Nah mate, Dawson City at the end and Bayliss’s campground which isn’t real level. Wiki Camp show a few more, but might just be off the main track? Mind you it only takes 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 hours to drive it.
