Don't have to have a campertrailer to join. Emphasis is on camping, 4WD and travelling in WA. Lot of members in SW WA getting together for day trips and weekend get togethers.

If you come across the bottom (via Esperance and toward Albany) drop into the Bremer Bay area. A wonderful part of gods country. Bring a fishing rod.

You have to remember (and this is important) that you are never, ever, EVER, allowed to tell the folks back on the east coast what a great place it is over here in the west.

Enjoy your stay here !
