Well apparantley they did, which was lucky.
A 30m high tree fell on a tent (at the Lane Poole Reserve, Dwellingup) last night at 10pm, the tent contained 8 people, they managed to get out of the tent before it came down, the loud cracking sound must have woken them if they were asleep.
Three were injured and one is in a critical condition, the Reserve has been closed while they (CALM) investigate.
Have wondered about falling trees when going camping.

Just been thinking this must have been on Friday night, as we came through Nanga Brook Rd yesterday (Saturday) and couldn't believe that there was noone camped at Lane Poole, you usually have to watch out for people walking on the road at this time of the year, hardly any vechicles on the road, would have been a good day to be riding Nanga
Just be careful it doesn't fall on your bike, you might need to sue someone.

Any idea which camp site in lane poole ? I go there all the time !
typical gum trees, when we were kids living in the pilbara it was made very clear never to camp under one. the fuckers drop limbs all the time without warning
No sorry looks like they closed the whole lot, the whole place was empty
