Is anyone travelling the CSR in the next few months?

Too late she cried. Phil I'll be travelling south from 33 down to 23 and Georgia Bore from about the 6th July. Probably a bit late.

Cheers Mick

hi phil b
cant help with the photos as not travelling csr atm
but
i'm following Gaynor's progress on spot tracker with great interest in her epic personel challenge
I notice the temperature up there is in the 30's during the day but would be much colder in the desert over night / lower during early morning
my csr trip from sept /oct 1987 brings back memories of the prevailing fluctuations in temps
true blue aussie aboriginals mostly travelled through the night during their travels and rested up during the heat period they were more in touch with the desert life than we will ever be
and were clever with their survival technics
whiteman does it the hard and hot way sweating and stressing our bodies during the daytime heat
then trying to keep warm during the coldest part of the night/day by laying around stationary ??
cheers
PS
do you have a website for pam armstrong's journey???

Hi Phil,

Helen, Missy (our Blue Heeler) and myself have not long returned from the CSR.
We kept a look out for your brother Bill B at Well 13 but no luck.
We got rained in at Durba, had to walk many claypans to find or make detours around but unlike some before and after, we didn' get bogged.

We met Pam & Tony just before Well 6 where we all camped, we stayed another night as this is my favorite spot on the CSR.
We caught up with them again just short of Well 9, had a 5 minute smoko which lasted nearly 2 hours! Pam was going great with a sprain and a large blister. I asked about Tony's shearers vest and he tried to give me his other one. They are really nice people.

When we came out of Godfreys Tank I noticed single wheel marks across our track, this turned out to be Gaynor & Andy heading North. We met them a couple of days later about 5km South of Bililuna. Gaynor was fine tuning her back pack but going well.

Our 20 year old 2.8 Hilux ute (it's 2nd CSR) averaged 14/100, took 20 days, broken phone aerial, engine watch dog failed but didn't even gain a new rattle.
Helen will email you a couple of photos of Pam & Gaynor.

Regards,
Dave S
