[QUOTE="mbasko, post: 666770, member: 4485"] As said there is a wide variety of reasons a specific area may be closed to one or multiple activities. Minview should be taken as accurate unless NSW Forestry confirm otherwise directly with you. The info on Minview is their own from NSW Forestry & they direct you to that site for info. See here under maps [URL]https://www.forestrycorporation.com.au/visit/activities/fossicking[/URL] However at times it can be slow to be updated so you need to check directly with them at their nearest office if unsure. In some cases there may be signage (short notice closures etc.) but just because there are no signs doesn't mean fossicking is ok! As fossickers the onus is on us to make sure we are not accessing areas that are off limits or restricted. Pretty sure the permit says something to that effect & it certainly is indicated in NSW Fossicking Guidelines that we need to ensure we have permission to access any land. The onus isn't on them to provide signage in every single area outlining what we are responsible for knowing prior to going there. [/QUOTE]
