(SA) Morgan

[Buckman]

G'day,

Had my first play at Morgan on Sunday, very impressed with what the place has to offer, even better that I will take the boat next time and explore the river!

Just a few pics (most have been done before)

http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a91/squidbert/Morgan007.jpg

Aired down and ready to go (you may recognise the Rodeo 'ClintN' but with some added lift)

http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a91/squidbert/Morgan010.jpg

Great playground!

http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a91/squidbert/Morgan013.jpg

A bit of water in the 'Basin'

http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a91/squidbert/Morgan014.jpg

Co-habitating with the 'chook-chasers'! (great entertainment)

http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a91/squidbert/Morgan002.jpg

Perfect spot for a BBQ and to watch .............................................

'Tonka'

http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a91/squidbert/Morgan015.jpg

This lad carved the river bed with his muddies trying to get up it, after several attempts he finally 'valved it' over the top.

I jumped in the 80 and walked it in two :thumb: not to be out done, a mate of 'Tonka' got a head full of steam and threw every bit of Nissan/testosterone/ego/turbo/muddies he had but had to retreat defeated

http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a91/squidbert/Morgan016.jpg

Not to be out done he decided to descend the river bank..........

http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a91/squidbert/Morgan017.jpg

he made it down and almost put whatever he was carrying in his tray through his cabin and smashed the side of his truck into the side of the track just before it almost tipped over :(

(For the record a Burgundy 100 series walked it in one!)

All in all it was a great day out in good company and I will be making the return trip soon.

Cheers,

Buckman.

[ROBSKI]

Let us know when your going next Matt, myself and Davo1 have been wanting to get up there for a while.

[ATARI]

nice photo's, looks like there was a fair bit of water in the pool?

it's definitely worth the drive up there!!

[Total_Filth]

Yeh i'm keen to get up there real soon. Haven't tested the new tyres and lift in there yet.

It is right behind the caravan park which is on the river bank. It is a family friendly spot and also makes for an easy day trip (we left the northern suburbs just after 8.30 and after a really good play I was home at 5.00).

Judging by the amount of people up there for the long weekend you would need to make a booking well in advance I reckon.

[CHOP]

no camping in the quarry area. camping in the caravan park which has nothing to do with the quarry or camp in a designated camping spot along the river.

Chop

[Total_Filth]

so? we planning another morgan day trip?
hah


TF

[moparcm]

definatly a top spot to go

[MAVRK-4]

Did any of you drive the track to the left of those descending creek bed photos? Lots of fun without lockers... finally made it back up that one last time I was there!

Front locker going in soon to make it a walk in the park.

[Barra-2]

Me and the Mrs are heading there in the moring camping at the CP and meeting 13 more vehicles there on Sunday. Looking forward to it, last time I was there was in a RAV4.

Barra

[et4wd]

Where ya meetin Barra and what time?
I could do a blast up there in the GU if i can find a passenger!

Steve.

[Barra-2]

Sorry steve, I didn't get your post in time, and my Vodafone Dongle had no coverage at the Morgan CP.:mad: I cant wait for the end of the contract in January 2010. But Telsta still too expensive.

14 cars, 3 lost number plates in the mud pools, and I'm uploading some pics now. Lockers were fantastic, climbed the vertical wall with Oomph, freaked the Mrs out so much she moved the video camera away as it launched over the edge:cry::cry: and missed it. hoping to get some pics from others soon.

Cheers from Barra

[toy yoda]

looks like all had a ball;) never actually seen morgan when its wet

[ATARI]

wow,

All that water is still there, the bowl was twice as full last weekend! I'm guessing the rest of the area was dry?

[MUD666]

dam i never seen so much watre there :( :(

the rock step up would be underwater then???? in the creek type of bit

[ATARI]

nah, we were there the week before & it was wetter again, the creeks with all the rock steps were dry.

there had been heaps of water flowing down as there was lots of silt that had washed down, being sand it just soaks in.

[MUD666]

dam would have made the step up easy then with extra sand :)

wish i had the funds to go for a run :( :(

pfffft, those rock steps are easy in the zook!

does you're 60 still have that silly sticker on the back... I think it should it read:

"I won't follow you cause I won't make it?":D:D:D:D

i'll probably head out somewhere now my 3wd has been fixed.

[GQmark]

Come to morgan boys!!

We've got 3 cars that will be there all weekend and will have camp setup in the caravan park.

Were also going to the Pub for T sat night.

[Clint N]

Good pics barra-2, good to see ya made it up that vertical climb, its a weird feeling at the top just as the front wheels lift for a split second as ya go over the top, my missus got out for that 1 lol

[GQmark]

What a weekend!

The GQ went sick. :) Nailed almost every track there except for 2 or 3 and there was still plenty of water. Will post up pics soon.

Morgan was packed sat night too with the Pagent and RSL Functions.

[80Butts]

Good stuff fellas. looks awesome there. I have been talking about doing it. I might sneak away friday arvo and find somewhere to camp. So If I'm right, you go into morgan towards the ferry and turn right down the road that splits the caravan park and wander off to the right a bit further up to the right?

I went there a few years ago, the weekend I bought my D22. I didn't go very far though coz we were there for water skiing suposedly..but by the time I worked out there was some wheelin to be done I'd had a few :drink: and thought I better remain sat in the camp chair on the river bank.

Would I be on the right track for getting to the quarry?
appreciate any info. I'm busting to get the 80 series up there for a workout. could probably make a day trip out of it at the worst

[GQmark]

Yeah your on the right track buddy.

[80Butts]

Sweet!
Thanks.
hopefully get there after christmas. maybe the 27th or thereabouts.

[unko]

YAY going there on the 5 to the 6 of jan yay

[80Butts]

went there for a little test of the 80 on Monday 28th. Awesome! didn't have time to stay too long and wanted to save some exploring for the next time round. Nice and close to Adelaide. perfect for a day trip if u need to get a fourby fix. Plenty of chook chasers to watch out for tho. Now need to get my motorcross bike fixed again so I can take it and the fourby !

[mudshark]

just read ur thread looks and sounds 2 cool pitty i'm in brisbane , bit more than a day trip :( 4 me. anybody know of anything like this near bris ?

[unko]

Is morgan quarry like rundle mall in the holidays?

[unko]

YouTube - mprance's Channel (http://www.youtube.com/user/mprance)

[unko]

Cheers unko

[acousticjase88]

might be hitting up morgan this saturday, or australia day!...or both! :D:D:D...

anyone else doing the same?>

[ATARI]

a few auszookers will be there on sunday

[Gumby]

ive been emailed to go but i cant make it

[ATARI]

spewing about that, i wonder when will they have another photographer in a~delayed?

[Gumby]

Not sure, i dont really care, i can wait till next time, i wanna take the bikes aswell.

[shane1962]

Hey guys looks like a good place to try out the paj when i get some new tryes for it in a couple of weeks but I cant plan anything yet till I finish going away for work the only day I have free is Sunday would love to go and have a play there and get some pics of the paj in action.

[acousticjase88]

mate its sick there....you have rocky hill climbs/decents, red sandy undulated climbs/decents, mud in winter!, and catch the ferry across and you have the morgan conservation park with sandunes to explore....bit of everything really.....defintely go in very rainy weather too :P....mud holes are fun!

[shane1962]

I will keep it in mind when I have a Free day and the new tyres on the paj. I will keep an eye on this post and see when a group are going up there for a days fun and see if I can join them for the day.

[moparcm]

definatly a fun place to take the paj i have taken mine there a few times and have heaps of fun each time.

[ATARI]

we were up there on sunday & the place getting hammered, alot of the hill climbs are becoming locker only territory due to people chewing the climbs out with open diffs!

[unko]

We should make a date in the next few months or sooner. do a forum run up there, illed be keen as mustard!!! Its worth doing a weekend as it takes 3 hours to get there and 3 hours to get back to Adelaide. plus we could do a night run too make it look harder then daytime?

[acousticjase88]

we were up there on sunday & the place getting hammered, alot of the hill climbs are becoming locker only territory due to people chewing the climbs out with open diffs!

no kidding...saw a few small 4wd's there, maybe a club. they were just chewing up the track to buggery..."oh i cant get any further, and my tyres are spinning....GO FASTER!!!!!"...so dumb....at least they got their mad shots of their tyres spraying dirt....:crazy:

never been up there in the wet looks abit more interesting the bog hole just had cracks in it when I was there

[MAVRK-4]

Yeah I was there for Australia day weekend too....

Managed to do a little bit of damage - yet another dent in the long range tank and then a disasterous belly out on a steep incline seems to have created a few cracks in my transfer case (transfer uses packers to lower it for a 3-inch lift)

Time to create a few bash plates I think!

[acousticjase88]

Hi MAVRK-4, I know how you feel. I just got my rear diff rebuilt only to find out that my gearbox is stuffed aswell!
The joys of 4wdriving!

So why post it up on a public forum where it can be used to show how irresponsible ALL 4WDers are, not just you?

And with rego's clearly visible so if anyone wanted to get stroppy about it you've both identified yourselves and provided the evidence? :crazy:

[acousticjase88]

wow....no part of me cares that my plates are showing...whats gonna happen? im gonna get fined for 4x4ing in a 4x4 park and doing a u-turn fast enough to get sideways...??...and in no way was i going to roll...i dunno what that person was doing in that pic but well done on the roll.

seriously, everyone must have a mad guilty conscience to block out plates...i got nothign to hide...i 4x4 sensibly and on this occasion i wanted to get a cool action shot of the cars....its not like we stayed there for half an hour tearing up the terrain....it as simple as...'got the shot, lets keep driving'......full stop....

now back on topic to how fun morgan is....

You might care if they shut down this free place to drive.

I am pretty sure he didn't try to roll it! Long way home without side windows and smashed guards.

He was at Loveday in the circlework paddock, groomed clay circle and he still went over.
At Morgan on rutted tracks.........DUMB.
At least you had no passengers.

It isnt a 4x4 park!
And people cover their plates so scammers dont use their details to sell cars online in scams like has been done many times over before!

EDIT:

FYI it wasn't the suzuki club up there... & if you look at some of PanterA's photo's it clearly shows NISSAN's with there AWESOME LSD's spinning wheels! I've got air lockers & I don't think I did any more damage than the wind & rain.

Sounds like someone needs to take a chill pill...

Atari, i tried your email address but unable to send coz i dont know how to turn off the email scam filter.

im disappointed to hear the vehicle has been sold, but am still in the market for a 4x4. Id prefer the new BMW X5 and am willing to pay top dollar for a good one. As i will have to buy sight unseen can you organise freight. I am willing to pay in full up front because i trust you. If you are unable to get the X5 id settle for a white holden ute with a tradesman back or even a black duel cab, I hear they are easy to find around morgan.:D

[MrHilux]

I was at Landcruiser Park a month ago and noticed some signs around the place.
Maybe some of these signs should be placed around Morgan Quarry!
http://i857.photobucket.com/albums/ab135/MrHilux/IMG_2437.jpg?t=1264895195
:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek: :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek: :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek: :eek::cry:

[Peter @ Aawen4x4]

No real need for signs like that at Morgan - we are all responsible people here on the Forum, so ALL the fella's who do things like that go out of their way to tell the world all about their antics and then post up pics of their vehicles with rego clearly visible on a public forum, dobbing themselves in just so the rest of us don't get accused of all being 4WD vandals & ratbag drivers.

And of course they realise that in any public area like Morgan the normal road rules apply at all times and photographic evidence plus their own admission of doing things like doughies or even fast 'U' turns where they lose control & get sideways can result in prosecution; and that it can mean that the broader 4WD community gets blamed for their moment of enjoyment that probly would've gone un-noticed except they had to tell the whole world about how big and brave they were with published pictorial evidence handing free ammunition to those who just love calling ALL 4WD'ers vandals and incompetent drivers - so they've taken steps to make sure that it's ONLY THEM that take the blame, and not the rest of us!

So nice of them, isn't it!?

lol'z i remember that! i think it was MAVRK-4 having a go at PanterA....Even though the place is an old quarry and was used to having the guts ripped out of it by front end loaders it is still crown land therefore public property so I guess that leaves it open to normal road rules? IMO you have to be careful about what is posted up.
BTW the pic's showing plumes of dust shooting in the air proves a distinct lack of traction or deliberate spinning.

Just a bit of sledging but yeah fair enough, with no-one around and only yourselves in the car you were only having a bit of fun. I already hate having to drive to Morgan to get a good challenge, I would hate to know where I would have to drive if it was closed down because of a (;)massive over exaggeration;)) rollover that caused a fire and the area burnt down!!!!! :thumb::thumb:
As for damage, I dont go hard enough, too much track erosion!!:D
But seriously I have ploughed my alloy bar into the front guard there too! Turned the wheel but tyres didnt grip.

Yeah mate, Tony and his crew have been busy. A bit like a war ground style crossings (small holes, big holes and trenches), rally track around the back corner, extreme rock garden.......etc
Cool fun.

I only saw three vehicles make it up that, and all three were twin locked- 100 series, My lux and a 79 series!

Went here the other weekend for the first time in a mates Sierra. Great fun. Even the popped seal was fun! For me anyway.
