Police arrived armed with a search warrant, forensic kits and brown evidence bags on Friday at Riviera Ski Gardens, one of a number of caravan parks clustered on bends of the Hawkesbury River where it joins up to the Colo River.
The park which has around 63 cabins, caravans and shacks on ten hectares with almost half a kilometre of river frontage.
It is about 20km east of where police found CM's body inside a barrel dumped in bushland on a bank of the Colo River.
Detectives and forensic officers swarmed over every inch of the white 1970s van (caravan) and a nearby cabin in the grounds of the Riviera Ski Gardens at Lower
Portland on the Hawkesbury River, 80km north-east of
Sydney.
Forensic officers in white overalls and wearing gloves painstakingly inspected the various points of entry at the
caravan and cabin, searching windows, screens and crevices and removing many bags of evidence.
The caravan and cabin remain under police guard overnight.
