Independent Camping for Australia
Note that now only displays 10 camps sites at a time - need to click on next button to display more. The reason for this is that Google Static Maps only displays a maximum of 50 maps in a minute (and 250 in 6 hour period). As such I have broken it up to only display 10 at a time. Also displays from West to East instead of alphabetically. Note if you get the image to the right it means that either the maximum of 50 maps in a minute or 250 in 6 hours limits have been exceeded. If you wait a few minutes and refresh it should work again.
