    JeepFreakz where talking about running a Jambo at LCM park as it was all set up to hold a large event. But I read it was just sold & closed down. So I don't know if that will stop them.
    I guess only time will tell.
    But I would be thinking strongly about another Cape Run in 2017......

    Wow, yeah, just checked! Landcruiser Mountain Park sold and closed forever http://www.landcruisermountainpark.com.au/

    That said, if you are (or anyone is?) in touch with a Qld Jeep Club that might be looking for a location for a Jambo, a mate of mine who lives in Qld - but drives a Nissan - suggested Janowen Hills 4WD Park http://janowenhills4wdpark.bigpondho...om/aboutus.htm

    The website is pretty basic, but they could check it out...

    Cape 2017 is really tempting! I was planning for Sept/Oct 2016 until the Jeep 75th anniversary "thing" was discussed for the October long weekend. Does anyone have any more info about that? I have roughed out some ideas for getting there the long way via the SA/Vic Border track, Mallee Country and Great Ocean Road, but until we know dates and times...

    I have a Wedding on the 1st Oct (long weekend) 2016 that I am committed to at Cowra.
    So things are not looking good for me getting to the 75th thingy.

    I thought LCMP was sold to people that plan to upgrade it and will reopen it when the repairs are done. I also think it will be under a different name now. Not sure though I could be wrong, there was a thread on ausjeep about it

    They are reopening but selling off the park in pockets to groups or individuals to use. No more general public access.
