Dear Forumers, We are planning a trip (amongst others) leaving
Cairns in late May...we have a dual axle Jayco poptop outback van we love and a 100 series Cruiser...how far up the Cape from
Cairns would people suggest we could go with the van (without being silly)...we have several thoughts, leave it at
Cairns,
Mossman, Pt Douglas and do a month up the Cape camping style...or try and get it to
Hann River Roadhouse or
Coen and do less camping style...We are travelling with a 5 yr old and an 11 yr old but we have all "roughed it" for varying times and in varying
places...
Also, anyone else heading that way that we could tag along with???

You can go all the way, but it will be more effort/hassle, in 1967 i went as a kid & the folks towed a 23' ply boat & launched at the original
Jardine crossing.(that was when it was a challenge)
Were heading up again about the same time (just trying to finalise dates) but will be a Quick trip as only going for a wedding & want to see a few friend's on the way.
take your time & tow it IF it & you are up to it
