Went camping at Burra Gorge with a few mates and their families last weekend.
Had a great time and the wether was perfect the whole weekend.
We had the campfire roaring each night and found a bit of 4wding to try during the day.
Unfortunately everyone kept forgetting to take photos and videos.
There were a few poor quality videos taken while we played at nearby Morgan NP so I thought I would through them together and post them.
Better with sound on.

Land Rover drivers never listen to reason, that mud hole had already been driven through by a Disco driven by a woman and a Troll driven by a teenage girl, they then both had a turn pulling him out.

The defender is usually very capable but he was not giving it enough.

Go the "U" I say. Defender/county are pretty good off road, a touch more momentum
might of seen it clear that ledge first go.
Used to know the daughter of the owner of the Burra Hotel [Years ago now]

We did have our tyres at 20 psi in the rocks, lots of soft dirt holding the rocks in place so kept dislodging them.
Needed a little momentum but too much and things would break.

I think there is 4 pubs in Burra, typical for a small SA town, only 1 called the Burra Hotel though.

Hey 3D, how well did you know the daughter?
My dream has always been to marry a good looking female pub owner, would help if she had a boat too.
