Black Diamond Recreational 4wd Club Inc

22/10/2026

After a fantastic Black Diamond Recreational 4wd Club Inc. trip exploring Murray Sunset National Park, Big Desert, and Little Desert, it's been a bit of a struggle to adjust back to mainstream life. But it was exciting to attend the October general club meeting and catch up on what's been happening at Club Central while we have been away.
It was also wonderful to meet so many visitors at our October meeting, and now some are members, which is just perfect timing, now being able to attend our next Driver Education weekend on the 31st October to 1st November.
Thank you to our visitor, and welcome to our new members; it's delightful to meet you.
Remember, if you own a 4wd, why not learn how to get the most out of it and enjoy it with mates? Age is no barrier, personal or vehicular 🤣. Check out the encouragement the Old Girl gets climbing Big Dune in the Big Desert; And you are never too old to enjoy life.

Please support the Shoalhaven 4WD Club spring clean-up in the Yalwal Shoalhaven area. Everyone is welcome to attend, whether you have just purchased your new pride and joy or you are a seasoned campaigner. Please remember to register through the link on the page so the Shoalhaven 4WD Club team can manage catering.

🌿🚙 YALWAL SPRING CLEAN-UP & 4WD DAY 🚙🌿
Saturday 7 November · 8:30–10:00am staggered start

Air down. Load up. Haul it out. 💪

Out in the bush around Yalwal there are illegal rubbish dumps that only a 4WD can reach – tyres, mattresses, scrap and more. Last time we hauled out a mountain of it, and this spring we're heading back to finish the job.

👉 YOU DON'T NEED TO BE AN S4X4 MEMBER TO JOIN IN! Everyone's welcome. If you love getting out on the tracks, care about this country and want to keep our tracks open for everyone, we'd love your help. Every load we pull out shows we're looking after the places we drive.

📍 Meeting point: Deans Gap Road, Yalwal – at the start of Mintbush Fire Trail
🛤️ Target tracks: Mintbush · Flexi Track · Rock Gardens · Riverside · Wombat Flats
🔥 FREE BBQ for all volunteers, put on by S4X4

We need:
🚙 4WDs to get the rubbish out (no 4WD? come as a passenger or help at the staging area)
🛻 Trailers with sides to take it to the tip

Bring your rig, a trailer if you've got one, gloves, water and a can-do attitude. A UHF radio, rated recovery points, AT/MT tyres and a full tank are recommended for drivers.

📝 Keen to help? Please fill out our quick registration form so we know numbers for the BBQ and can organise vehicles, trailers and radios on the day:

⛅ Weather permitting – if conditions are poor, the event may be rescheduled. We will contact you from the info you entered on the rego form.

Let's leave the bush better than we found it! 🌏

After a rest day at Red Bluff campground, we made the shortish drive to Stockmans campground in the Big Desert State Forest. Very spoilt with new toilets, water on tap, gas BBQ's and a happy hour shelter and the best part no fees. Tomorrow we head off along Chinaman Well Track, Pella Track, Milmed Rock Track and camping at Big Billy's Bore Campground, around 175 ks, so a earlier start tomorrow. Black Diamond Recreational 4wd Club Inc 2 Deserts and a Sunset trip not disappointing, good 4wdriving great company and lifetime memories. If you are enjoying our trip via our social media posts, just think how much better the experience would be if you were in the posts. If you are lucky enough to own a 4wd, join a club and get out and use it.

Sorry for the Black Diamond Recreational 4wd Club Inc 2 Deserts and a Sunset trip slow updates, some times fun gets in the way. 2 days on the Boarder Track and 1 to go, fantastic 4wd tracks that keeps on giving, from tight winding tracks to open desert landscapes. Some very rutted tracks and soft sandy climbs. But best of all is being able to experience it with such a wonderful group of people. Joining a 4wd club is just the best decision you can make.
