Bullah Bullah Crossing

Thanks for your response. I have recently purchased a Hema HN7 and on that system I cannot find a map that provides the sort of detail needed to properly plan my trip. I'm talking here of the tracks in and around Dig Tree - it shows only significant tracks but no secondary tracks that could be useful to know about.
Can you please tell me what map you are using and if it's on the Hema system what is it called?

Simon & Christine,
Doesn't the HN7 have the 250 Topo map? I have a Hema HN6 & Bullah Bullah Crossing is shown on the 250 Topo map in the included maps in the unit.

Cheers,

Hi Allan,
Yes that map is included with the HN7 and yes it does show a reasonable amount of detail of the area (interestingly, the same map has very poor coverage of the area around Ophir near Orange showing no more than major tracks).
The crossing called Bullah Bullah Crossing seems to be at Dig Tree yet there is no evidence of a crossing when I look at Google Earth - I guess it must be a dry weather causeway or as another member has pointed out it could be private. I was just curious to know if there were more details somewhere. That said, it's not an issue because it's only a short trek around the north east to get to the Tree.
Many thanks for taking the trouble to respond.
Cheers,
Simon

Hi

The Bullah Bullah Crossing point (a ford) can be seen in Google Earth...but as the Cooper Creek was underwater at the time the image was taken you cant see the actual ford across the river - just the track either side.



The Burke and Wills Bridge referred to by someone else is a different location altogether (~7km up stream) ..and can also be seen in Google Earth.



Cheers
