Any update on this ?
Also why isnt detecting still allowed .

There are still signs up last time I looked. The coil might knock a Booroolong frog in the head? I guess just disturbing the ground down there is a no-no now. In all honesty, the gold is pretty fine not really detectable, you would have much more luck down Trunkey if you were in that neck of the woods.
I have seen some pretty dodgy **** down there too, massive holes and yeah dredging because it's rather isolated....at least it was until Youtube made it popular. The zircons were fun, but there's much better gold options.
Its a pine forest apart from the areas along the creek.. they have trucks and bulldozers knocking down trees everywhere but they think a couple of geriatrics swinging metal detectors is going to destroy the place . Its ridiculous!
Hmm wonder if mushroom pickers will get locked out as well ? Destructive lot they are as well

Another year on... Has anything changed in regard to this area still being closed?
After this year's events in the news, maybe don't mention the mushrooms or you might attract even more unwanted attention!Its a pine forest apart from the areas along the creek.. they have trucks and bulldozers knocking down trees everywhere but they think a couple of geriatrics swinging metal detectors is going to destroy the place .

Minview doesn't show any "No Fossicking" or Lease areas within Essington State Forest now. It did previously.
To be 100% sure I'd contact

As at 14/12/23 it's showing as No Fossicking along Native Dog Creek again.
Reinforces the need to check regularly or contact Forests directly.
