Stapylton Campground Overcrowding 23-Nov-2005 At 3:49:11 AM AZ.Steve

I actually work for some of these (Scout?) school groups. Sometimes, groups (not my goups) at Stapelton can be seriously annoying and intrusive. It's not the kids fault, kids willl be kids. It's the fault of the leaders. If you have a problem with the way a certain group is behaving, find the leader and tell them their kids are being d*ickheads. I'm sure they'll find a way to quite them down and help them respect the space of other campers.

When we take groups to Stapelton we try to stay either at the sights closest to the Cave of Ghost's or the big area with the shelter. The sights just up, closest to the bouldering area seem to be the unwitten climbers or private camp.

I wouldnt suggest Golton Gorge along Copper Mine Track because that is also frequented by school groups. Go Bush, but please use the pit toilets. Another bush site I'd suggest is right by Stapelton. As you take a R out of Stapelton, keep going until the road makes a sharp 90 degree turn. There is a 4X4 track that keeps going straight from that turn and a few nice spots along there.
