| Details: | Stars Paddy as Cary Grant & Doris as Eva Marie Saint. If you’ve ever had to follow Paddy, then you know this could have as many twists and turns as the Hitchcock classic. Nothing planned in the way of day trips – just gonna wing-it. Taking a “Paddy Shortcut” to revisit a particular place, so the route will be wayward and the results unexpected; as you would expect. 2700km round trip plus day trips. Apart from 4 nights in Cape Range NP we will be on the move every day. Campsites include Coalseam, Bilung Pool, Khyber Pass, Yardie Creek (or thereabouts), New Beach and Ellandale Pool. NP day use fees and camping fees may apply. 4 vehicles maximum. Camper trailers and off-road vans OK. About 700km on gravel/dirt. Minimum fuel endurance required northbound is 350km when towing (southbound no problem). Longest travel day is 480km. About 1000km northbound without access to Autogas (LPG). Itinerary is flexible and subject to flooding. | |

| Details: | Well it is that time of year again,time to celebrate "Christmas 2010". So I have organsied a trip starting at the entrance to Whiteman Park and making our way off road to Guilderton. I hope to be in Guilderton just before sunset so we can have a fish and chip supper and watch the sunset, with some good friends and maybe a few beers on the beach to toast what a good year of 4x4 we have all had in 2010. If you want to you may even want to throw in a line, or just talk about the one that got away. I will organise for Cheree to bring the cheesecake? Lunch will be somewhere along the way. So don't forget to bring the 4x4's, fishing rod, a chair, and a sense of humour, ha, ha ha, or is it HO,HO,HO. | |

| Details: | After many great trips there, we are wanting to keep up the WC4X4 tradition and have our annual Xmas holiday pilgrimage at Bremer Bay. WC4X4 have booked the same area we have used for the last few years, so we can fit in tents, trailers and vans (but power sites are limited). Camp fires are still permitted, so look forward to many nights around the campfire. | |
