Amamoor storage has to survive the quiet months

The town sits in the Mary Valley with Amamoor Creek State Forest behind it, and once a year the Gympie Music Muster fills the forest. The rest of the time it is small farms, lifestyle blocks, and people who wanted the quiet.

The year

Eleven quiet months, one loud weekend

Day to day, a container here is a machinery store or a tool room on a small farm. Event crews and community groups use one differently: staging, marquees and cables that must stay dry and locked from one Muster to the next, sitting on a paddock edge with nobody thinking about them. A weather-tight box does that job well. A long 40ft suits poles and marquees if there is room to place it.

Shade matters in the valley. Afternoon sun on a west wall, plus fog in the mornings, is how condensation starts. Vents high at one end and low at the other, the box up on supports, and stored gear off the steel. A hinterland workshop is the longer version if you will actually work inside it.

Tracks

The forest road is not the valley floor

Properties toward the state forest often have a steeper drive and a narrower track than a pad down on the flat. A tilt-tray wants a firm spot and a straight run. A bend beside the house can rule that out even when the highway into Amamoor felt easy. Photos of the approach, taken from the vehicle that will not be the delivery truck, are what we need.

Nothing is stockpiled in the forest. The container comes from Gympie, and the valley road is the rest of the job. If the last kilometre is wet, the day moves. Floodwater and a low creek flat are a bad combination for the same reason they are elsewhere in this valley: water gets in at the doors.

Around

4570, and the forest behind it

Amamoor and Amamoor Creek are 4570, as are Dagun and Lagoon Pocket back toward Gympie, and Kandanga further up the valley road. Dagun's hill and a flat at Lagoon Pocket should not be quoted as one job.

Gympie Regional Council covers Amamoor. A store for Muster equipment and a box you modify are different asks. Ring them before you cut anything in.

Amamoor, before the truck is booked

Can event gear live in a container at Amamoor between Musters?

Yes. Locked and dry for the long quiet stretch is the point. A 40ft takes poles and marquees if the pad has room for the truck that sets a long box down.

Will you come up a steep forest drive?

Often, after we have seen it. Narrow tracks and a tight bend near the house are the usual reasons a tilt-tray cannot finish. Photos decide it.

The inside drips in winter. What helps?

Vents high and low, the box up off the ground, and nothing stacked hard against the walls. Valley fog is damp air, and steel is cold.

Which council is Amamoor?

Gympie Regional Council. Ask them about anything that stays permanently or gets modified.

Hinterland notes

Up and down the valley

Amamoor: forest track or valley floor?

Those are different trucks. A photo of the last bend is the useful one.
