After our Winter trip last year, I had a bit of a rave about the conduct & actions of some Outback travellers..
This Summer trip indicates things are getting worse.
Case 1. A vehicle with a camper trailer got bogged in a wash away on a 'Closed Road'. His mate sought assistance from a nearby station. The guy at the Station took a tractor down to free the bogged unit. On his return after about a 3 hours- the 2 front wheels of his own Landcruiser had been STOLEN.
Case 2. At another station, Solar panels which powered a pump to water livestock STOLEN. This had led to the complete closure of a very popular gold fossiking area (and some very thirsty stock).
Case 3. Solar panels seem to be a favourite. This time, the setup was to supply water to a town. Panels STOLEN.
What's going on....or is it
too easy now for some 'dick heads' to access remote areas ???
Please- please- please- if you see someone doing the wrong things on your travels, take a rego number and REPORT IT TO THE COPS!!!!
Happy and safe travels to all this season
