Kimbo Posted October 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2008 exactly and when I read the above story thoughts come flooding back of where we were standing when 1 of our group had the treble caught in the foot and passed out in the boat at King ash bay last year.Remember that Shane and Elle???Oh what a feeling Not what to do Regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deb and Geoff Posted October 19, 2008 Report Share Posted October 19, 2008 Geoff and I just had four weeks in Cape York ( July 08) During our overnight stop in Lakefield National park we had a visit from a fresh water Croc just metres from the van , As this was on our way up the Cape it made us aware and alert of our surroundings every overnight stop we made.

Deb and Geoff Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 There's a variety of places to stay over through Lakefield National park from the very basic with just a clearing or bush around you to sites with ammenities , Suggest a visit to Cooktowm Information centre to grab some brochures and maps of that area .Have a great trip , We loved it :thumbsup: Deb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
