True North Adventures

Based in Cairns with Cape York as their backyard, True North Adventures is a crew built around hard access and high payoff. Their trips put the lens on remote Queensland – places where the map says yes but the terrain wants a proper plan. Think Old Telegraph Track crossings, long corrugations, and coastal missions that punish poor prep. 

On YouTube, they focus on the feeling of being out there and the detail that gets you home. There’s plenty of fishing and plenty of 4WD problem-solving, which is exactly what you want if you’re plotting a Cape run and want a realistic look at conditions. 

The team – Stevie, Marc, and Baxter – keep the tone straight and the footage honest. It’s mateship, mechanical sympathy, and a respect for country that comes from hours on the track, not just a single season of highlights. That authenticity has grown a community that asks good questions and shares better answers. 

Their builds are tidy and purpose-driven, with gear choices that balance weight, speed, and reliability. That’s why a freestanding awning is a non-negotiable: shade on demand, no fuss when the wind picks up, and camp coverage that works as hard as they do.

Runs: D270 Freestanding 270 awning – strong, simple, and always ready when the next creek crossing turns into an unplanned lunch stop.
