The park in Toowong opposite the bus depot?
Used to live right next to it. Can handle a lot more than 20 carloads, but we'd need to get there fairly early with that number. Don't know the BBQ situation but kids play equipment is reasonable. Trees are also good for climbing (well, it was a long time ago I used to live near there...)
Oh, and wherever it is, put me down as coming as well.
by chance i had to do a job in town this afternoon so i took a detour to mt cootha and had a good look
best to worst
jc slaughter start
there is a set of toilets. when you pass the toilets on the right u than cross a little bridge and there is a good area on the left, plenty of parking, shade around the edge of a big grass area and at least one BBQ
jc slaughter bottom end
much the same as above, i reckon it would be more popular, parking not as good, has toilets
simpson falls bottom end
great area, toilets, BBQ's. the only problem is the picnic area is on the other side of the gully, would mean carring eskies chairs etc, parking not to bad
hoop pine
has toilet, not much shade, big carpark, big open grass area and a couple of BBQ's
silky oak
good under cover area, BBQ's, smallest carpark but would fit us all, plenty of shade, no toilet
like to park opposite the bus depot, first in best dressed
inc best you decide as i don't want to be held accountable
