The Stave West mudflats have been a popular – but unofficial – 4×4 mud-bogging destination for decades. Over the years, they gained a fairly sour reputation and have long been threatened with complete closure to off-road vehicles. Finally, after more than a dozen years of advocacy by the 4WDABC and a joint venture with Dirt Church in maintaining the area as a true multi-user, multi-purpose recreation area, the foreshore along the flats was turned into an official rec site and campground, thereby solidifying continued access to “the flats” for mud enthusiasts.
