Hi all
Barry C and I visited the site today to check the conditions. I have posted some photos.
First the good news. The grass is not long and the top half of the field is useable for setting up gear and tents.
Not so good news. While the field is useable, we will not be able to take vehicles onto it. Although you may not get bogged, it will chop up the ground.
The bottom 50% of the field is very soft and wet. In some patches it is not bad, but overall that part is too wet to safely use.
I have checked out the alternative parking area and it is fine and has power and water for those with vans etc. I have attached a photo of this area.

Photos shown are:
1 The lake
2 The lake again
3 Where Barry is standing is about where the field gets too wet
4 The debris in the foreground shows how high the lake got the other day!
5 The lake behind the toilet block, never seen so much water there!
6 The last 3 shots show the alternate parking area.
