Righto all you NSWelshman and QLDers, Styx River State Forest is the destination for an AULRO Gathering, Styx River State Forest is east of Armidale in northern NSW in between the coast and the ranges.

I've posted all the info in upcoming events, be there or be square

Styx River is a great spot, I haven't been there in years.

From http://imagery.maps.nsw.gov.au/

Lat -30.615256 Long 152.134370 Geodetic DD

The Dept. of Lands site has just been updated and is still slow, but the imagery puts Google Earth to shame. Has several different versions of Topo and aerial photo, and satellite photo.

To get up a Lat/Long search you have to choose advanced tools option-double arrow button- in the bar just below the maps.

Cheers
Simon

Same here, last time i was there was in my motorcycle touring days in the early 80s, i figured that a winter long weekend would be a little quieter.

Sounds good to me

I've put this in Upcoming events as well.

Here's a map of the forest and campsites i will put a more detailed one soon, we were thinking that if Wattle Flat doesn't have many campers there we would camp there and have Nearby Farewell Flat which also offers facilities for camping along the river as a back up, as well as Pantons Point and Hyatts Flat, [size=18]<span style="color:red">we are happy to have no facilities, is this OK with everyone, if it is then we will camp at Pantons Point or Hyatts Flat</span>
