- In this episode we leave our free camp on the banks of the Gascoyne River to set up at Mt Augustus, the worlds BIGGEST rock!!
We do a a bit of exploring and hiking around and up the rock.
Next camp is Temple Gorge in the Kennedy Range. This one blew us away!
The scenery was breath taking!
Keep watching, because next week we set up camp right on the beach at 14 Mile, Warroora station.
Cheers guys!

“Come on mummy, it’s not a big deal”.... hate to say it Cam and Tiff but Chloe is out performing you guys in the entertainment stakes... I thought my daughter was a funny little bugger at 3 but Chloe is just delightful. This is a trip she’ll remember parts of for life.
Don't change a thing. Perfect family trip Cam.
Great video. Fantastic scenery and great photos and drone work. Children keep you fit. Safe travels.
Good to hear you haven't had dust problems with the van. Looks like you're all having a great time
Completely agree with the previous comment guys, Chloe makes me smile with her cuteness, but you guys are good at this both of you are very easy to listen to, it's a joy to watch.
Cheers Peter! 😊
Classic Australia .... lovin this series 👍
Chloe is just awesome! Best thing you guys are doing for her. Creating memories she will never forget. And for yourselves too! What a perfect trip!
Watching this from across the world in New Mexico USA... And it's really striking how similar the landscape is here to your Kennedy Range! I'd love to go to Australia someday!
Great stuff, thanks for sharing!
Great vid guys, gotta admit I cracked up when Chloe gave Tiff a serve. A trip round Oz would be amazing. Thank you for keeping the backing tracks to a decent level, they don't over shadow the main video. Looking forward to the next episode. Cheers
So great to see Mt. Augustus again. I haven’t been back since my parents sold Cobra Station (next door) in 1980. It was an incredible experience and a lot different 40 years ago. Can’t wait until we can do a similar trip to yours one day!
First of all a big thank you for taking us around hidden Kennedy ranges. It’s absolutely spectacular and gonna be in our exploring list.
Secondly we are so immensely love your family’s energy and involvement towards exploration. You both are such a cool parent and ur kid is amazing.
“Come on... It’s not a big deal!”
How cool is that and it shows her self confidence building up.
My second just turned 4 years and every day she surprise with her milestones.
Thanks again and sorry for this long message. This message is our first instinct and we just want to convey it to you guys.
Keep posting
For us it’s a boost during this VIC lockdown!!!
Ulaa - Explore with Family thank you that is too kind 😊
Happy Birthday to U

Thank you so much for sharing your journey with us all. I am loving every bit of it so far and those drone shots take it to another level. Keep up the good work and can't wait for episode 3 :)

Wow guys awesome episode, beautiful camp spots and the scenery is awesome .Loving your big lap episodes so far
Cam and Tiff just found your channel and am loving it. My wife and I are waiting on our new Dmax to arrive and we we have decided to get a hybred caravan. Some of the little mods you have done to yours are very clever. Our first trip was going to be to W A and just motel it and stay near major towns but after watching your first two videos we have decided to extend our trip and take in a lot more sights. The WA tourist department should throw you a little sponsorship.
Goon on ya James! You'll absolutely love exploring the country with your new setup!!!
first time i have seen you guys but i am impressed with the little one, you will have such wonderfull memories of daughter in years to come. Glad to see people are getting out and seeing WA outback i was a tourist coach driver in the late 1970's and travelled extensivelyy through those regions absolutely wonderfull scenery and best of all wonderfull people out there. Will keep following your adventures
Great episode guys really enjoy watching your travels
Good to know the van is virtually dust proof , I like your content and presentation , will be following your story well done
Enjoying watching your trip and seeing the great Aussie outback.

Awsome vid you did the area justice
Very nice mate :) Loving the trip so far. Can't wait to get out that way one day :) Cheers, Don (Dons Shed and Xplor Overland)
Fantastic vid guys looks like you have a little hiker/climber with you,loved her comment "no big deal" enjoy your adventures.

Loving your videos... first Australian you tubers I’ve watched who really go live a good feel of doing the trip. Stay safe x
Loving the series, looking forward to the next one
Loving your adventures guys. And the your doing a great job on the videos while on the road.
Looking good peep's! Loving the info! And living the family vibe 😃
What a great adventure, so envious
Looks awesome guys
Great video and drone footage ...keep it up
Omg your daughter is just too cute! Bringing back some funny memories of mine. Good times mate. Great family times
Great videos mate . Daughter is funny as hell!!
Love watching your adventure. Footage is awesome 👌
Hello From Canada! Your channel and adventures are some. Keep up the good work mate.
JDMPaul awesome! We hope to get to Canada in a few years time!
Awesome mate - how nice was that Black Headed python...he looked very inquisitive!!
nice one guys.
Great episode and I am looking forward to the next episode, one suggestion for your map is to do it in 2 different colours so that way afterwards you can work out what area each episode films. We are looking into the Forbes 15+ and to start traveling about. Cheers 🍻
Wow, wow, wow.
Loving watching your trip. Happy birthday Cam. 🤙🍻
Cheers Dan! 😊
Next month we're going to Kennedy Range National Park, but we will stay at Gascoyne Junction instead of at the campground. Thanks for the info and for uploading your trip.
Greetings from Texas! I found your channel while researching off road caravans. My wife and I are enjoying the tour of Australia content. Cheers!
Nate too cool!
Would love to explore some of the US at some stage of our lives!
@@WildTouring
There are a lot of sights and different terrains/climates here. The US has a mostly paved highway system though, dirt overland routes are slightly rare.
The trans America trail would be an interesting drive, although originally plotted for Enduro motorcycles a lot of people have done it in their 4x4's.
I'd love a proper overland adventure through the outback, maybe one day... Looking forward to the next video, safe travels!
Looks like some good times there. Cheers Steve
We camped at honey comb at Kennedy Rangers and had the place to our selves. The sunrise on the cliffs was amazing.
I hope you do a video on gassy junction roadhouse n caravan park. I had a hand in the concrete slab n ground work. Lovely vids.
warrick jones nah we only passed by Gascoyne Junction this trip
Yeh, the few times I have been To Mt Augustus I found the people running caravan park interesting.. One time a
I actually though they didn’t want people to stay as they had to clean the accommodation afterward..
But it’s part of the experience and it’s worth a visit, but yes, Kennedy range is a better spot..
Kennedy Ranges are one of my favourite spots. And you’re really heading into gods country now. Waiting for the next vid 👍
Great episode guys, this channel is going to grow quickly!
Stupid question, is there a way just to flip the matress the other way? ie just flip the head end onto the foot end instead of having to slide it, maybe rig up some sort of strap just to pull it over.
Dan40D could work..will look in to it! We put some black builders plastic underneath the mattress and it makes it really easy to slide around now!
Love the vids guys! I’ll be taking one of my boys on a trip around aus next year! Thanks for your reviews on some of the places!!
We went Landor races last year, in from Meekathara then out down the center to Mullawa. I had a 2006 Jayco outback the van got no dust in it but my Prado was chockers
oo looking forward to seeing the next one! We are going to go up north for 6weeks in october! Im trying to decide on taking our tent or getting a camper. Its a bit overwhelming!
Let's not go Home everything is always a compromise hey!
love it, keep it up
Awesome stuff guys!
Chloe is going to be a star i love her comment and you to love your work being stuck at home (Melbourne) keep up the great work. P.s what prushers are you running on coragtion thank you 🍻🍻
With all the weight we're lugging around on the high way I am running 40psi front, 45psi rear and 50psi in the caravan.
For corrugations I'm running 30psi front, 35psi rear and 35psi in the van.
What a great vid bring on the next one
12.05 . . . "C'mon Dad, it's no big deal !!!", . . . LOL, just gorgeous, where do they get it from ????. Take care and stay safe, thanks for your time and sharing, cheers.
😂😂😂 I know right some of the things she comes out with!
Thanks, top vid
Nice work Cam.
We will be at Woora on the ninth for 3 nights . Staying at Elles , can’t wait . Loved watching little Chloe hiking up the Kennedy Ranges . Such a little trooper . Think we may give Mt Augustus a miss , definitely will do the Kennedy Ranges though. Really enjoyed this episode we have a similar setup so it’s great to compare . How was the road into Woora ?
Michelle Evdjenic not too bad, patches of good and bad. Can’t remember where elles was but if it’s as far north as 14 mile take the northern track closer to Coral bay as apparently this road was in much better condition than the south track.
I think Elles is south of 14 mile & we are doing the same as you guys staying in Carnarvon for a night so will probably go the south track instead of back tracking . Enjoy you lucky ducks 😀
Lovely
Loving your videos, where did you get your maps and are they stickers? The ones I see on eBay don’t seem to have the detail yours does.
The one you see tiff drawing on at the start of the clips on a laminate map from a newsagent. The one on the canopy is self adhesive and was from eBay - but doesnt have the same level of detail that the laminate one has.
Hi, great video. I would like to know when you did this trip. We are going on pretty much the same trip starting August 17th. The weather looks pretty nice so that's why we were wondering when you did this trip
Thanks Harry. We left July 15th. So you'll be a one month behind us weatherise.
Thanks, we are really looking forward to this trip. We've been up and down the coast but this is our first inland and a rental Tvan. I'm from Canada and I've been here for about 6.5 years. We want to do the great central road next year, if the borders are open.
Man I got to get a drone....unreal footage.
What drone have you got?
Cheers mate. It’s a mavic air 2s 👍🏼
Great video guys i check every day for a new one. How are you finding the caravan? Any problems? I'm currently looking at the 15+ trying to convince the wife to spending bit more money so we can do beach trips like your next eppisode. Keep up the good work stay safe
No issues so far, just a few minor things rattling loose from corrugations but same deal with the car. We will be keeping everyone updated on how the van goes. We do a little bit of an update in the next video coming out next weekend
@@WildTouring great look forward to the update and the next one
Before I do my big lap, I'd love to learn how to fly a paraglider and paramotor.... places like up the top of Mt Augustus would be great to launch from..... it beats walking down...lol
robdotcom71 sure would!
Coreflute under the mattress makes it really easy to slide.
We ended up getting some black builders plastic from the hardware store in Carnarvon and its working a treat! 😊
God love Chloe little sweetheart
You guys are too relaxed having too much fun and having way too much freedom 😳...just spare a thought on us Victorians who are still on home detention and banned from venturing out with our 4x4 and caravan, great video and scenery 👍
At the end you show drone footage of the beach and ocean, I assume that was a large shark meandering about?
Yeah 6-8ft shark cruising through the shallows where we were swimming. Stuck the snorkel on for a look to make out what type of shark, but he shot off.
Great video Cam warrorra station is a great spot check out Maggie’s we drove our boats down from coral bay and moored there keep up the good work
Mt. Augustus caravan park - sounds like you discovered the caravan park from hell! Fuel probably has water and dirt in it too given the care they take of their campers. Beautiful places though. Thoroughly enjoying your trip as we are stuck in Melbourne for the foreseeable future.
and stay there
@@1chrisandangie Ofcourse, until the restrictions are lifted, that is exactly what I will do. Just make sure you don't flout the rules where you are if and when you are in this predicament. Hopefully never.
Been waiting for this! Finally haha
Mate there are people who do RUclips and then there a people that do RUclips and have people hanging for an upload.....You fall into the latter always enjoy your content mate and the family stuff if even better keep it up guys....
Haha thanks mate!
Good looking van. Any idea where they are made?
Chinese import, final assembly done locally (gas, plumbing, electrical certification, suspension, hubs/wheel bearings and tow hitch).
@@WildTouring I thought it might be. I've seen a few Chinese vans...they look good and I'm sure do all they need to do. I'm not quite in the market but would certainly prefer to buy an Australian made product wherever possible. I'm enjoying your videos so far...very jealous of your holiday. I'm stuck here in Melbourne, stuck at home and currently not working. Living vicariously through peoples RUclips videos.
Cool video looking to be a great time. Do you reckon you could try include into the vlogs, some fuel economy figures between destination stops?
krump 7 will do! Will probably do a tally of costs 1 months in. Average fuel economy so far is 17.5L per 100.
Hey guys how have you found the difference from the ff to the van?
My wife and 2 young girls 5 and 2 love our ff but feel a hybrid mdc van may be just that little bit easier... no wet canvas to manage
We never thought we would be caravan people 😂 but we have absolutely loved having the van. Having a hot shower every night (without setting shit up) and being able to have a pee at night without unzipping the door is so good.
And it's just good to be insulated, we don't feel the heat or cold as much, if it's really windy we don't hear the canvas flapping all night. And yeah like you said, if it's been raining or there's a lot of condensation, we don't even worry about it!!!
👍👍👍👍
newbie quest...you dont disconnect yr camper each time you pull up to camp do you? if a short overnighter, still leave it connected?
Moyston ADV just easier to keep it hitched if we’re only staying 1 or 2 nights and we know we don’t need to use the car (as long as the ground is level)
Ok Guys,where is your patreon info??,great videos by the way.
Kevin Turton we’re not on Patreon mate, don’t really want the added pressure haha
A little mountain climber in the making.
Great episode. Message me when you come to South Australia, would be good to catch up and share experiences. We have 4 year old boy and a mdc camper. WA is our long trip we are planning in a few months
Minute 16:18. What trailer is the truck pulling. Don't think we have that here in the usa
It’s an old 13ft Coromal. Aussie made caravan
Hi what drone do you use?
Ellie Fairhurst123 It's a DJI mavic air. Very easy to fly, and packs up really small.
I was only up at mt Augustus myself a few weeks ago and was looking at the dingo den also (wild dogs is a term backward thinking farmers made up so they could try wipe out a native species without alarming the public).
Either way it was pretty cool and like you said very creepy looking.
Where's Mr grover… from reception boys
I am stunned by your daughter
Thoughts on an American seeking permeant residence in Australia? Would my family be welcomed by Australian's or is it not too common to see foreigners. Excuse my ignorance.. Just learning that the USA is not the only safe country in the world. SMH XD
Hey mate. Aussies are a welcoming bunch, and Australia is very multi- cultural. You would have no dramas settling in!
Come over for a holiday and check it out for yourself. It's a big country though, much like the states. Can be big distances between cities/towns, so it'll be hard to get a feel for the whole place in a holiday!
THANK YOU FOR SHARE BEAUTY DETAIL VIDEO AS WISH BEST TRAVEL AROUND AUSTRALIA IN SAFETY DUE TIMES CON19
why don't you have solar power?
We have solar on the car and the van 👍
