Camping and observing

Hey all,

I live in Brisbane North (Near Sandgate beach for though who know the area) and I was wondering if anyone knows of any GOOD, high, out of the way camping areas for a complete night of observing?

I have a 4x4 and I have trained, done week long 4x4 trips etc but my car isn't a rock crawler! It's a Jeep Cherokee XJ 96' but it moves

I want to go somewhere, DARK and out of cars driving in and asking to look through my "Big telescope thingy" haha.

Any ideas?


Next question: Who wants to organise a observing camping trip?
