Im not sure about the Chapman Lease as I have never been there but I did see some exposed bedrock in some of the creeks toward the northern end of McMasters GPA. The creeks are usually dry, so youd have to bucket the material and wash in one of the water holes.
Hope this helps.

Stop in and see JP & Freida at the Outback Prospector at Shop 5, Clermont Plaza (Cornett's IGA),

Hi sand surfer, when are you of to clermont, I'm heading there myself, parked up in sapphire at present, cheers dinger
Hi rockhunter,thanks for the info mate i will give them a ring before we go :Y: :beer:
Hi dinger were thinking of heading up that way next week,are you getting a lot of rain there at the moment, had a look on the idiot box this morning when got home from the dawn service they said they were getting up to 100mm around clermont today plus what they got last couple of days,might be a bit too wet to get in there.

Not knowing anything about the Chapman Lease, as he doesn't answer his Email nor his phone message bank, could someone enlighten me as to how far out of Clermont this lease is, as it may be easier staying in the park if only a short distance to drive each day, as I can put up with my own stink but 5 days without a shower .... phew! :argh:
Or is there another place to take my camper van close enough that may have at least a swimming hole to freshen up in each day or two.
Cheers
