4x4 Camping set ups

[shakergt]

Hi all I would like to see how people have set up there 4x4 for camping and prospecting. It would be good to know what has worked and what has not worked for people with there set ups. Post away people.

I go alone so tend to go as light as possible. Take lots of water and food. Mainly high protein.
The only thing I take is a spare battery and two spare tyres. Get the car checked before I leave and take off.
These pics are from two trips earlier this year, over 10k of travelling in the outback.
I survived.

The best investment I made for detecting or any other outing (exclude detectors and fridges etc ) is a Travel Buddy oven, mounted in the rear of the 4by. I usually detect in winter and a hot lunch is just the thing - several menu items.

1. Take a frozen pie, pasty or sausage roll out of the van freezer and along with the obligatory tom sauce, into the Engel. An hour before lunch switch oven on with the food for a piping hot lunch.

2. Mini pizza, similar time, great lunch (or happy hour with a beer).

3. Re heat any leftovers - time = trial and error depending on size and if still frozen.

Coupled with a Thermos for hot coffee, it really does make a miserable cold day better

I sometimes drive whilst it's heating food, so it works either way, powered by auxiliary battery.

Well there are times when you go camping just me and the missus...

Then times you need to take the whole mob to somewhere you haven't been before....

And times when the kids come to camp.....

We go for comfort to relax at night so you can have a great day.........

I be got the same swag that Hard Luck uses - the Techni Ice one.

I chucked out the mattress and use a Wanderer 100mm self inflator.

Its comfortable and cozy in cold weather. Without the mattress it rolls up into a compact package.

Hey Junkdog, is it me or does your camper look SLIGHTLY out of level????

 

[Jaros]

SLIGHTLY?? Still attached to tow car-probably that's why.

Hey Junkdog, is it me or does your camper look SLIGHTLY out of level????

I'd say the camp ground wasn't level.
