- This trip was a long time coming and in late 2021 we finally assembled an awesome convoy and took the long trip to Byfields National Park. In this Episode 2/2 we head out from camp at Nine Mile Beach destined for the beautiful Five Rocks Beach. We stop at the spectacular lookout that is Stockyard Point before winding our way through extremely tight inland tracks to Five Rocks and enjoy a BBQ lunch.
But heading back to camp wasn't going to be easy, as several vehicles in the convoy struggled to conquer the soft sand tracks exiting the beach. Watch as we muster all hands on deck and fight the fading light to recover the stuck vehicles using winches, TRED recovery boards, recovery gear and extension straps.
We finish the trip off with a relaxed final day and play some sunny beach cricket before making our way back towards Brisbane.

Fantastic locations
Truly an amazing spot- ADD it to the bucket list.
Awesome legends
Thanks Richard!
Great work guys 👍
Cheers bro 🤙
What a trip that would have been.
truly a lot of fun
79 series thong slap compared to the deep rumble of the Y62. Nothing like the sweet sound of a petrol V8!!
V8 Petrol will always sound amazing- Supercharges Help too
Great crew, lots of fun and adventure.
You bet!
Great looking spots, that legendex 79 sounds the business!
Haha thanks mate
We got up in a stock car with ez never got bigged
Radiator cap popped off!! That shouldn't happen in the first place!
Nope, and we never heard of it happening to anyone else, just so strange- lucky too an no one keeps spare caps any more.
Gosh I had so much fun on this trip 😊👌🏻
Same here
Awesome awesome video legends fantastic
Thank you so much 😁
Should have put a barra in that pootrol and is would have smoked 5 rocks hill
ooooo now your talking- we've set up a few turbo Barras at the shop last year- Love those monsters
I would have put the camper on the back of Barnys truck after the second try.
All in the name of R&D mate, the Hitch crew were keen to test every thing out for themselves, which is a good thing. In normal terms we would have swopped it out.
love the episode :) definitely liked how you used the recovery tracks as a wicket for cricket haha
Yeah mad it easier for sure
cool episode! good work with the recoveries. Go the Patrol!
Cheers Brent!
Great video guys, yep I know how soft that sand is, been there and been bogged... Numerous times.
Awesome place.
softest sand in QLD- and truly an amazing place
Helps if you let ya tyres down
This is true haha
😍 Promo'SM!!!
What Tyre pressures you running on the beach?
Can only speak on behalf of myself, but I had dropped to 10psi by the end of this trip. Usually with the Jimny I don’t even need to sit down at all for sand, but this was an exception.
Your little Jimny does look fun! I notice a huge difference going from 15-10psi in the sand out at Stockton beach Newcastle the sand gets very soft and rutted here in summer.
I was at 18psi in the Y62 Patrol and no issues (except for the radiator cap).
Trying to be 4WD 24/7 why?
Just being ourselves dude.
These guys are so much better than the 4wd 24/7 guys as they mix things up and aren't afraid to have different makes of 4wds including Jeeps. I also haven't seen them pushing crap products like Chinese made campers, poor quality exhausts etc.
