A 3 Day Camping Trip to Byfield to Rejuvenate plus Searching for Bush Tucker 1/2
After a long hiatus, I escape for a 3 day long weekend camping trip to Byfield NP to recharge. Since completing my travels in 2019, I've rarely been out bush. Join me as I show you some of the highlights of Byfield National Park, as well as sharing some of my bush tucker knowledge, and hunting for the elusive Ghost Crab.

I installed a dual battery system in my Defender using a Blue Sea Systems Automatic Charging Relay. It's rated to 500amps continuous which is plenty for combining batteries for jump starting the vehicle from the second battery should the primary go flat. This unit also comes with a dash mounted switch allowing easy connection or disconnect of the 2 batteries. These relays are produced for the marine environment so suit the Land Rover well!
More info on specs can be found at http://www.bluesea.com/products/7622 or https://amzn.to/2Ou4TiT (Amazon Affiliate Link)
I used a Full River 120a/h AGM deep cycle battery as my secondary.
I made a dual battery tray for my Land Rover out of 3mm plate steel and 25mm RHS with a couple mounting tabs on the bottom. An Anderson plug completes the installation allowing me to connect accessories such as my Inverter without needing to remove the seat and battery cover.

I've installed a chequer plate bonnet protector on my Defender 110 to strengthen the bonnet so I may access my roof racks with greater ease. A chequer plate aka tread plate bonnet protector is an easy installation taking a couple hours. I had mine powder coated to match the rest of my accessories.

A visit to Expedition National Park where I explore the Robinson Gorge section, camping at the Starkvale camping area. Four bush walks are completed being the Robinson Gorge lookout and gorge walking track, a visit to the Cattle Dip and hiking to the summit of Shepherds Peak.
First stop though is Lake Murphy Conservation Park. After Robinson Gorge I visit central Queensland's largest lake in Nuga Nuga National Park, a wildlife hotspot.
After departing I continue on to Lonesome section, visiting Lonesome lookout and the campground. Beilba section was missed due to rain.

During my daily pre-start checks I discover my harmonic balancer was loose, caused by a worn crankshaft key. The key and harmonic balancer were replaced allowing me to continue travelling after waiting a few days for the parts to arrive. It pays to carry tools to do your own repairs while travelling Australia.

Hell Hole Gorge National Park is a newly opened park 1100km's drive west of Brisbane, in outback Queensland's arid Mulga lands. The town of Adavale is the gateway to visit Hell Hole Gorge which is 70km away from the parks entrance.
The threatened Yellow Footed Rock Wallaby among many other animals live in the gorge surrounds. A great place for bush walking and exploring. I visit Spencers waterhole, Hell Hole waterhole and Hell Hole gorge, as well as a short look at the township of Adavale.

Having invested tens of thousands of dollars into my touring Land Rover Defender, a fire extinguisher is paramount to protect my vehicle from fire. I show my 2 extinguisher locations and how easy it is to access them in an emergency. A vehicle fire may start from a simple electrical fault, burst oil hose or grass collecting near an exhaust. It is imperative a fire extinguisher be carried to respond quickly.

I've added a couple of Combat Application Tourniquets to my medical kit for my solo travels. In the event of major bleeding to one of my limbs, I have the potential to stop the bleeding one handed by using a CAT.

The installation and review of an Engine Saver low coolant alarm for Land Rover Defender 200tdi or 300tdi models. An engine needs coolant to stop the engine overheating. If this leaks away, it may only take minutes before permanant engine damage occurs.
You may not notice a rising needle in time, hence why installing a low coolant alarm will give you plenty of warning so you may stop the vehicle safely and switch off the engine.
The Engine Saver alarms are available from http://enginesaver.com.au
For more info on the AC/DC alarm debate view this link:
