A quick email to let those that
camp on the
Ningaloo Coast that the
Learmonth Bombing Range will be closed to campers.
The area is from the southern boundary of the
Cape Range National Park to the North
gate Ningaloo Station, includes
Sandy Point and Doddy's
Camp, I
camp in this area regularly so it will affect me as
well, the reason given is the amount of rubbish that accumulates in this area, including the thoughtless idiots that throw rubbish into sinkholes and wells, one particular
well is absolutely full with rubbish and has had to be covered with a steel lid and padlocked, I personally had to dig out several dozen beer cans and other rubbish out of one
sinkhole over the
Easter period. When the area is to be closed to campers is yet to be determined.
Cheers
Mark
