I want to welcome you to our little community of fossickers, prospectors and outdoorsmen. Come join us on our journeys, share your wins and help us build this community up to be a valuable source of information, inspiration and guidance for all skill levels from beginner to advanced! We look forward to sharing our journey with you!

As the Rough Track Rookies, we’re learning as we go, and you learn with us. Follow two middle-aged rookies stumbling through the Aussie outback… or whatever creek or dustbowl we’re allowed to escape to. We make the mistakes so you don’t have to, while we all swap tips, tricks, and questionable techniques for the hobbies we love.
