Spotted one of the Hema vehicles in Margaret River (WA) today - they must get around...in my next life I am getting a job with them.



Cheers

I sent one final shout after him to stick to the track, to which he replied “All right,” That was the last ever seen of Gibson - E Giles 23 April 1874

Hi Greg

That would have been a good sight for you to see.

It is vehicles like that that help their maps to be up to date, as we all know that to get accurate maps, field checking is a very important factor.

Well spotted.


Cheers

Lucky so and so.

Well yes - sort of. They have a flasher car though :)

I saw them camped at George's Junction east of Armidale several years ago one New year's period.
Seems they can't get enough of the Bush, they camp on their Holidays as well !
They had Patrols from memory back then, but still well fitted out.

"They" are various "professional" travellers that are commissioned to do such work. Not the office or cartographer staff.
