Bush camp cooper pedy

A few weeks ago we camped about 20km below CP, we just turned off the highway, eastern side behind a ridge. Only about 200m off the highway but out of sight from traffic. Only stayed o/night. Don't have the co ordinates sorry but Member Blaze may be able to help you there.

Cheers

Now that's what I would call taking you life in you hands ..... IN town or well away from diggings would be my choice .

Johno, We are heading out that way next Monday, did you come up the track or down the track from the north, I am trying to find out what the roads are like between William creek and cp. be interested to know about your bush camp at cp too as we will probably use it ourselves, would appreciate a heads up

At the risk of being branded pedantic, it's Coober with a B not Cooper with a P.

The biggest problem these days is that as more and more country is fenced it is getting harder to just pull off the road to camp. the area in question has the added problem that as there is no vegetation for most of it it can be hard to find anywhere to "hide".
Travelling north from Port Augusta it is round 100k before you run out of fences and the fences return as you get further north. then the lack of trees and scrub makes it pretty hard as you get closer to CP.
We usually just stay in the first park on the right as you turn off the highway.
