Mini Camp – Upper Noosa River

Following many requests, it has been decided to hold a camp to the upper reaches of the Noosa River.

The challenge with this is the limitation on camping numbers past Camp site 3, so we have to be a little bit creative in our approach.

It also means we’ll need a fairly accurate idea of numbers to make the best plans.

Below are two camp options. Camp ‘A’ is for 3 nights and camp ‘B’ is 4 nights.

After perusing the details, Paul and I would like an idea of those interested and which option you’d prefer.

Both camps will do the same activities with the 5 day camp being more relaxed and less strenuous. There are toilets at all camp sites except for the night at the top of the river.  All camping gear and water will need to be taken on the kayak.

Due to the limitation on numbers, acceptances will be in the order they are received.

In responding, PLEASE advise whether you wish to be on camp ‘A’ or ‘B’

If you aren’t worried whether you do the 3 or 4 night camp, please advise as it will give us further flexibility.

 

Please send your response to Paul Watt email: paulwatt@bigpond.com

We reserve the right to make changes in need, depending on numbers.

 

Thanks
