Heres a couple pics of a quarry i have recently been going to.







This is pics of just one of the pics. most of it is only around knee to waist deep. i did find one spot that i got to chest deep and still didn't hit the bottom.
it was a great spot right up untill it went all solid on me... at chest deep with both my arms past elbow deep.

mind u i did enjoy the struggle of getting out. took me 10 mins to dig my self out. i dont have any pics of this as i do not wanna risk my phone near the water while sinking.

i did look at another pit at the same time but there wasn't much deeper then shin deep and while i was coming out from that pit(it was dark around 10pm) i saw a set of head lights driving round so i got the hell out of there.

there are a heap more pits to check out there so i might have to check more of them out

Looks like you may have struck gold there. Is it far from the cbd?

its all the way down near Langwarran. there is a couple quarries round my area. only just sort of got the balls to go to this one.

Sweet!

Had a look on Google Earth. Looks like a very widespread earlier.
Great location though, looks like you could have a lot of fun there

ive just noticed that the pics have been cut in half by the forum. ill go resize them LOL

Oh, you lucky dog! I would love to be there right now.

I was stuck up to my hips in quickmud/sand like that in an similar quarry a while back.

I thought I'd have to yell for help, but I eventually broke free by gradually working one leg after the other in a time of about 5 minutes or so.

Freezing cold day, but I managed to work up a sweat.

That is amazing.... someone told me there was a sand quarry near where i live, i hope it looks as promising as this place

OMG -what a fantastic looking location. Thanks for posting these pix.
