Hi Greg
That would have been a good sight for you to see.
It is vehicles like that that help their maps to be up to date, as we all know that to get accurate maps, field checking is a very important factor.
Well spotted.
Cheers
Stephen

I saw them camped at
George's Junction east of Armidale several years ago one New year's period.
Seems they can't get enough of the Bush, they
camp on their Holidays as
well !
They had Patrols from memory back then, but still
well fitted out.

"They" are various "professional" travellers that are commissioned to do such work. Not the office or cartographer staff.
