That random palm tree was a cycad They are an ancient family of plants pre flowering plants. Australia has many species and they can live a long time.

Hi Jason, have you ever been to Walka Water Works at Oakhampton in Maitland. It used to be a premier tourist spot in Maitland but sadly has suffered some neglect in recent years and part of it has been closed since asbestos was discovered there 2 years ago. In my view it would still be worth a visit to kill a few hours. There is also a major Wetlands tourist centre at Shortland just 30 minutes from Maitland as well.

Scary riding on the handlebars at that speed 😂

Its great hearing those lyrebirds go through all the bird calls. I sit and listen and marvel at them. Loved the episide

New subscriber to your Channel and envy your life. Living the dream. Im actually around your age, grew up in Sydney and now live on the Central Coast. Im hoping to do what you do soon. The Lyrebird has been photographed by bird photographers(like me) with continuous shooting before by the sounds of its impersonations.

Another great video! Loved all the bird life, especially the very vocal lyrebird. That tree bark was fascinating too. I’ve just got my own van that Dad is helping me turn into a camper so I’ll be looking for all these good parking spots lol

Thanks for another terrific video. I thought the boardwalk through the grassland was beautiful and the surrounding areas.

It's exciting to discover new local areas and experience them for the first time. Seeing familiar places in a new light has deepened my appreciation and reveal hidden gems I have overlooked. Have you come across any new favorite spots or landmarks during your explorations?

Had a smile and laugh at that Lyre bird...who needs a DJ 🙂 Funny sound from the Bush turkey, never heard them before, good capture. Always a tad eerie when birds suddenly go crazy for no apparent reason...it's like, "what do they know!" Haha. Bobin Creek boat area has grown ie more boats, always been a lot of $$$ docked there. The water still looks amazing colour, if 'fragrant'. Still looks a pretty area. That grass land area was interesting and different scenery. 900 year lifespan for Grass Trees wow! As another person commented, so much to see in the Sydney Basin area and lots wouldn't know it was there. Another awesome video Jason, thank you.

Loved the video. I feel I’m walking those trails with you. Don’t you love the smell of the bush you walk through, the trees, grasses the dampness and the sights you experience. We just need to get out there and experience those hidden gems. Yes, back to childhood, exploring outdoors. Hope mum is ok and the sun keeps shining so the washing drys lol

Watching you navigate those MTB trails always has me tightly puckered (if you know what I mean). The GoPro footage captures the experience in such an immersive way, it's almost like having tunnel vision. I concur with another commenter - a YT Short featuring the Lyre Bird's song would be fantastic, especially with a close-up of the bird if possible. Excellent content Jason!

Do i see a a 12vdc router pluged into a acdc tranformer pluged into a dc/ac inverter plugged into a 12v battery?

Another beautiful location haven’t been to bobbin head for many years amazing how the lyrebird imitates other birds

You should make a youtube short of that Lyre Bird ....awesome 👍

Hi Jason, I've only recently discovered your channel and am enjoying your videos immensely. I have built out my own Sprinter Van a few years ago and like you I'm a MTB rider and use my van to transport me to MTB tracks throughout Tasmania. I'll begin the process of watching your back catalogue and just wanted to say thanks. Happy Trails Buddy. 👍

Hi again. :) that Lyrebird gave me a good laugh. 😅 it's awsome listening to them. I have seen & heard them in the wild before up In NSW when I was up that way last. 😊 some of those bike rides you do I can't believe how rough the terrain is & how good you are riding so fast through it all. 😀 Enjoy time with your mother. :)

The lyrebird was incredible ❤ among other bird noises it was copying I could hear a horse gallop and what sounded like the beat to Bollywood music with those tiny hand cymbals 😂

Awesome as always

Added to my list of "go to's"

Lovely stuff, take a look at the app all trails shows a lot of hiking spots.

Stumbled across your channel, no disappointment relaxing n soothing to watch. Cheers mate

Thank you for the bird noises! The lyre bird was amazing and the bush turkey gave me a giggle 😀

Great stuff Jason. You lead quite the envious lifestyle. I had a friend who used to say that you could spend your whole life in the Sydney basin and outer environs finding new places to explore. You're doing it and taking us to places that, for me, I've never been too. Take and keep having fun. Cheers, Sean.

Glad to see the mat is helping you

Ah Bobbin Head, a favourite family Sunday drive for a picnic and adventure when I was a child. Incredible Sydney beauty.

That lyrebird had all the sounds!!

nice video, nice cuts, like this dude.

Beautiful area

Always noticed the smell at same spot, reminded me washing machine as well.

If you want some good falls head down to Mittagong hit up 40ft falls

How much does it cost you a week to live? What are your expenses please.

See any Yowies?

Wow, you find some really beautiful places! I love how much you appreciate nature. You seem to have become a bit of a magnet for sticks it seems lol. The natural arch is so cool. Very fascinating! So was the big overhanging rock with all the holes in it & the ‘spa’, but it’s a shame about the sewerage pollution in there. I was wondering what was in the water making it smell. So cool how trees have grown around rocks too! I love that you show us all these amazing places! Thank you for sharing.

thanks , love you clips

I free camped all around Newcastle.blacksmiths beach area and that side of Newcastle is pretty cruzy i never got hassled once..

Really enjoying your videos..

Great videos. I would love to be free to live the van life.

Welcome to my neck of the woods. Thank you for showing me new tracks to go explore.

Just beautiful thankyou for sharing 🌸

You wouldn't want to get stuck in that natural arch of rock no-one would fing you till you were a skeleton scary 😮

Full time living in a van is exhausting .

Another good one Jason. I really like the mountain bike POV videos. Those bloody leeches just seem to be everywhere. Anyway stay safe and have fun as you do. Cheers, Sean.

Great viewing....son lives in Sydney and we,ve explored some great areas around the harbour....😊

interesting to learn about the fragrant smell coming from the water. Good researching. 👍

I live up on a hill; and some kilometres down the hill from me is a sewerage treatment plant near one of the beaches. Been living here for years and haven't really smelt anything untoward - however there is a dune walk that runs a long the beach near the treatment plant where occasionally you can get a waft of the smell that you're talking about. The run off goes into the sea and causes foam like those I can see in the video drifting down the pond/stream. However being the ocean we also get a natural byproduct of an algae bloom, as well, where it produces a lot of foam and a rather different pungent smell. Ahh the joys the being out there 🙂 Thanks for the video. That natural arch was quite a find, indeed! Good to see you getting out there amongst it.

Sounds like that microphone muffler for the GoPro is working well in the wind at Hornsby!

The Hills District has a lot of hiking trails, creeks, reserves for you to explore. Would be great if you could explore much more and tag us along 😄

Thank you so much for all the beautiful closeups of the rocks, the water, the moss, and the grass trees LOL 😂 I would really love to be there, but I’m a bit mobility challenged atm 😂 I’ve just photographed all the tree trunks in my local park 😂😂

Another beautiful area, it’s really awful all those chemicals go into the stream water, really frustrating,thanks for showing us around 😊

As you get older you seem to have to shop more often, enjoy your channel
