    Wagon Claypan dam

    14 июля 2024 г., Австралия ⋅ ☀️ 18 °C

    About 18kms west of ‘Old Andado’ is the working Andado Station, from here we started to look for a decent spot to camp, but there being little to no trees to shield us from the track we had to go another 30kms further south to get a good way off the road and so camped at Wagon Claypan dam.

    We only saw 3 other cars today going in the opposite direction.

    We could collect plenty of firewood so had another warming fire for the cold night to come.

    Still on the Binns Track when we came upon this solar powered bore and rusted old tanks.

    SA Border to Mt Dare

    15 июля 2024 г., Австралия ⋅ ☀️ 16 °C

    For about 20kms before the border the landscape becomes very treed especially running along the Finke river, after we enter SA and the Witjira NP the trees disappear.

    Into Mt Dare - much the same as we remember from 20years ago - except a lot more people!Читать далее

    Gibber plains

    Mt Sarah Station

    Through the gibber plains, over some sandy dunes and windy rocky tracks we decided to make camp just north of Mt Sarah homestead.

    Oodnadatta

    16 июля 2024 г., Австралия ⋅ ☀️ 12 °C

    Fleeting visit to the Pink Roadhouse - fuel is the most expensive we’ve come across on our whole trip - $2.99 pL, but we didn’t need fuel.

    Painted Desert

    16 июля 2024 г., Австралия ⋅ ⛅ 14 °C

    Spectacular views in this amazing landscape - which is why we’re back for the third time!

    This Breakaway country is the result of prolonged weathering. Because of its geological importance, 850km² of the Painted Desert area was declared "The Arckaringa Hills state heritage area" in 1985.

    Unfortunately it was very overcast so not the best light for photos - plus it was blowing a gale!

    Our underground roomWalking on the "roof"

    Coober Pedy

    16–17 июл. 2024, Австралия ⋅ ⛅ 15 °C

    Good gravel road south into Coober Pedy on the Kempe Road. We weren’t looking forward to a windy night in a campground in Coober Pedy without a campfire so we booked into the Lookout Cave Underground Hotel. The hotel has access to the “roof” for a 360 degree view of the town.

    The next morning we’re up and away early to fast track it home. Very foggy until about 9.30am.

    Murray River and houseboatsLeaving Coober Pedy in the fog

    Berri

    18–19 июл. 2024, Австралия ⋅ ⛅ 12 °C

    A long day of driving (firstly through fog) on the Stuart Highway through SA’s desert landscape and then into Port Augusta with views of the Flinders Ranges to the east.

    On to the A1 then off towards Crystal Brook, Gulnare, Spaulding and Burra with their lovely old stone homes and buildings.

    It was overcast with sporadic rain all day so it was nice to finally arrive in Berri for the night. Berri, better known as Australia’s fruit bowl, has some of Australia’s best regional produce and is lined with rich riverbanks teeming with wildlife, especially pelicans. We stayed at the Berri Hotel situated on the Murray River and had a huge dinner at their restaurant.

    Thursday - weather still cold and overcast and we pushed through to Wagga Wagga for the night, staying at The International Hotel.

    Friday - ditto for weather, everything is looking very green due to recent rainfalls.

    Arrived home safe and sound with another successful trip completed!

    Total Fuel: spent $4,845 on 2,493L, average price for fuel was $2.02pL with a fuel economy of approximately 18L to 100kms
