Welcome to Fraser Island! For me, I was celebrating my 47th year of visiting Fraser since the first work trip back in sand mining days.
There's no better way than to introduce someone new to the beauties and wildness of the world's largest sand island so I invited my mate 'Flash' Matt from Section 8 4WD Club in Victoria along for the ride in his V8 76 Series. Matt;s a very experienced 4wder but he had never been to Fraser so this was going to be something real special. There was no way theHandbrake was going to miss out on this trip, and 'SMART' Richard and 'Sinbad' Si came to in Richard's 105 Series, plus Richard's misses Tukta came along who is a superb Thai cook, so stay tuned for some awesome cooking in some amazing locations!
As if that's not enough the man who wrote the book on Fraser, Brad 'MAXTRAX' McCarthy joined us for this trip with his custom built 6WD Toyota 200 Series desert crossing rig. Wait until you see this baby on the tracks!
Now unlike previous Fraser trips I've taken the time to give plenty of tips for people who've never been to the island to get an idea of what to expect everywhere from the barge crossing to the beach highway itself. In this episode we headed over to the fabulously remote Platypus Bay on the north west shore. Well known to the boat fishermen who cross from the mainland, not many people know about the track across the island that'll get you to some of the most magnificent country in Australia.
There you go - something old, something new and plenty here for anyone either planning a trip to Fraser Island or wanting to know something different about their favourite place.
