Mate, they were some of my first efforts. They are too long and very poor resolution. It gives you an idea though.
I was wincing when I watched that Bogucki documentary the other night as I'm more familiar than most with the country he traversed. Something not quite right there particularly around the no water form 12 days thingo! Savage country but you can hit the sweet spot at that time of year as I've found out over eight trips through the area since 2006.
Yep, the Kidson has changed a fair bit since Ray Ronchi touched it up in 2011. Bottom half is still the same though. (Was there last year and this ;-) Ray has some bloody funny stories around grading out to Gwenneth lakes. The one about the 'Environmental" lawyer, the bulldozer driver and the T/O's is priceless!
Casual 2015 for me as
well with something really special planned for 2016. 10 years exactly from when I headed off at
Easter 2006 to do as you intend. Loved
Kununurra. Good town, good people. Spent a fair amount of time there. Any nature of work available. Foolishly came back after 13 months....should have stayed!
2015 will be spent fitting out the new quad and taking the Princess to
places of her choice (She has to get used to the idea of five months without me in 2016 so best get the brownie points up now. lol).
Admire the dash of anyone prepared to step outside the square and head off like you intend. We are underground for a long after all. Live it now.
Cheers Mick.
