January 1976

‘End of Track to Camp Flat’ – photo taken on 18 Jan 1976

After looking at land in Dargo and having the sale fall through.

Advertisement in The Age for bush block with stream and solitude. Rang the advertised number, saw some videotape and arranged to view the property. Drove to Swifts Creek January 17th. 4½ hours, Land Cruiser alone (no trailer) . Saw property and spent the night. Creek was running well. Very dry weather. Still, breathless in the valley. Sunday January 18th signed Sale Note for thirty day contract. Despite weather, puddle on track seemed to indicate springs somewhere North of granite rocks. We decided not to visit ‘The Property’ again until we had paid fully. Lawyers set in motion.
