Hey Aaron,
Hmmm... Dark sites... That's a hard one in the west area.
I live in deer park, and I have found it hard to find any dark place, unless you head out to the country area near Bacchus marsh. Even though it may still give you some residual light, but its pretty good. You could also head out along the Bacchus marsh/werribee road. That can give you darkness there, but still some residual light. They are both bout 30 min drive.
If you want close to complete darkness, you will probably need to head to ballarat (approx 50min) and then head towards dalesford way. That's where you'll get much darker skies... Prob about an hr+. Also have to keep an eye out for kangaroos!
Hope that helps!
