Hi Folks
At the end of May I had the pleasure of being one of the first few people to gain access to "Western Creek Station" for the purpose's of detecting, the owners have recently opened the property, which has been closed to the general public for 15 years plus, it is now operating as "Western Creek Gold".
The first trip saw me accompanied by Digginerup & Joe82 from another forum ( Joe had 5 day's) the 2nd trip was just Digginerup & myself, so in 2 trip the 2 of us had 16 day's on the ground plus 5 for Joe, we found about 10 oz'z give or take, and others on the property at the time also had a few oz' each!!!
The countryside is typical of this region & has huge potential for "Gold" there is plenty to see & the water holes (dams) hold a huge amount of bird life around them ( the bush alarm clock @ 6am) a few of the dams even hold a few "Freshwater Croc's".
Access into the place is very simple & is car friendly, there is a bit of country able to be accessed by 2x4 vehicle, but to get out further a 4x4 will be needed, you can access the camp ground with a "Caravan".
They have set up a toilet block at the camp ground with 2 toilets, 2 showers & 2 basins, it only has cold ater at this time but the owners are looking to put in a hot water set up.
The camp ground itself is a nice area with good views, at a spcific time of day it is "SPECTACULAR".
To book your "North Queensland Adventure" call Shirlee Young at Western creek Station, By the way Shirlee & Geoff are really friendly & great host's, so head up and enjoy the paradise we call NQ!!!!!!
