    We pulled into Spring Creek free camp yesterday just before lunch. Have to get in early to get a decent spot...gets very crowded. Only place to camp and leave your van for a day trip in at the moment.
    Left the van a Spring Creek today to do the 53k drive into the Bungle Bungles. It can take up to 2 hrs to do the drive in. With lots of creek crossings...which we love. Plus the track is winding, hilly, corrugated ... which we don't love. For 4wd high clearance vehicles only. Only single axle towable units.

    We traveled in and camped for 3 nights I think about 8 yrs ago. Had our tent and left our camper locked down at the Halls Creek Van Park. So had more time to explore. Was bitterly cold at night.
    You will be looking at doing about 200k driving to cover the park properly. All on dirt roads with corrugation and creek crossing.
    We spent a full day there today. Have a great time revisiting old favorites.
    Walked almost 20k today. Our biggest walking day yet. Left when the sun was coming up, drove out as the sun was going down...will sleep well tonight 😴

    PS... There was a really unusual gravilla. Don't think I have every seen this one before anywhere.
