Further to the above, I did stop once for a Kodak moment. This spot is a bit of a favourite of mine, coming onto the
Mayne Range from the north. Taken on the flood plain where Gum Ck meets the Diamantina. Lake Billyer is about 500M to the east of this spot.

Heading towards Mayne Range, on Diamantina River Road.

Mayne Range from Diamantina River Road

On Diamantina River Road, near Lake Billyer.
Met up with some fishermen from
Lightning Ridge, near Davenport, on their way to
Diamantina Lakes to chase a few Yellowbelly and some yabbies. They'd pulled up as the bloke in the 80 series was having front diff problems. They ended up removing the front drive shaft.
They said the road up through Palparrarra past Davenport, had some really bad washouts, as did the road between Davenport & The 'Lakes. Steady, steady would be the best speed at the moment.
The River Road, north of Mayne River, and up to
Old Cork is in good to excellent condition. The Cork Mail Road, from
Old Cork past New Cork, is good. Road up to
Lark Quarry, and back to
Winton, along
Winton-
Jundah Road is also good, at the moment.
