Oallen ford update

[shivan]

It seems that there have been new signs put up at Oallen ford and there is now some enforcement on the no camping
I have not been out there for a while, but have been hearing stories of people filling up a trailer with dirt to take else where and process, people camping out there for extended periods as well as trespassing on private property.

For now it seems we can still head out for day trips and fossicking, but please don't head out to camp. Stuarts crossing would now be the closest camping ground i could think of.

There has been a guy semi-permanently camped there for the last 6-7 months. Lives in a commodore with a large tarp draped over it. Pretty easy to spot, right next to the bridge.
I haven't seen anyone filling trailers yet. Was down there a couple of weeks ago, water was fairly high and 5 or 6 other prospectors happily digging.
Ian, hope to see you out there Saturday week

Yes Jeff i believe that is the bloke, apparently the police have asked him to move on.
Its just a shame.

Will see you out there Saturday week.
