    Blue duck creek biv north arm

    Anyone got pics of the biv or knows weather it still exists? Never hunted north arm before and while doing some research on the area blue duck creek comes up alot but looking on a map the biv isn't marked, hoping to spend a night at the biv and explore the surrounding area if possible.

    Looks like could be a bit of a fridge over the winter months.

    Can confirm it is still there and has no fireplace. Never been brave enough to sleep in it over the night in Winter. Has a air bed in it.

    What's the commute like from the main hut to hunt the blue duck area?

    Nah it’s tropical, sunny side of the valley.
    No fire, it’s a tin tent…

    May 19 2020 according to the date stamp on the photo.
    It was immediately after one of the lockdowns, supposedly no one had been in there for weeks. But the deer certainly didn’t behave like they’d had some time off.
    Was certainly farking cold, big puddles 200mm deep frozen solid overnight.
