Go Tim! Scouts will be first against the wall when the revolution comes if I've got anything to do with it. I've had the misfortune to be a scout, and its taken years to lose the pyromaniac urge.

Copper mine track which is reasonably close to the Stapylton campground also has some good bush sites and you used to be guaranteed of a nice quiet time. Also, down near Golton Gorge (off the Golton South Rd or something like that) there is a ripper spot tucked away in the trees next to a creek. We once spent a week camped there and its not far up to Stapylton or Mt Difficult and the Halls Gap crags (and some secret remote bouldering...). I'd like to categorically state that no climbing was done at G-Land.
