we need a special thread on camping areas in and around Cairns including the names of places, the layout and contact details.
+1. I've had an idea about revamping the Camping Areas threads in the Trips and Tracks section to make them a bit more user-friendly. IE, rather than one massive state-based thread, let's make each state it's own sub-forum, and make a seperate thread for each place. IE, a "Tyrconnel Mine" thread, a "Lake Tinaroo" thread, etc. That way, as time goes on people can add the latest updates/new photos/changes to the bottom of the thread, and it will keep it all up to date. Would be best to have a standardised format for the title and the body, much like some forums have for the for-sale sections. Would be good to cinlude costs ideas, as well as links to the owners/NPWS site, etc.
If we wanted to get really fancy we could break each state forum down into sub-regions, (ie, a FNQ region). I think that would allow the people who live in those regions to really keep their sections up to date, whilst also allowing travellers to a new region to easily discover the best places that are available to them. I think that would be a little easier to navigate than just a state-based section.
Anyway, I've been meaning to talk to Teabag/the mods about it for ages now, but never manage to get the time. Let me know what you guys reckon, if you think there's value there then I'm happy to propose the change and see what people think.
Cheers!
