serious stuff

Lot's and do you own a bull bar ? LOL

Sorry mate could not resist.
Lake Eyre South was pretty full last month and can be seen from the Odnadatta quite easily.
Lake Eyre North still has a lot we could see it from O'Hallarins Bay in the distance (Couple of KMs) away.

Get a plane from William Creek and see it properly.

The water in Lake Eyre moves around a bit with the wind. When we got to O'Hallarins bay there was no water visible, it blew a gale all night fromm the north east and when we got up the water was at the edge of the lake right next to us.

It is worth the drive to have a look at the lake anytime as the countryside is like nothing I have seen anywhere else. Also teh lake looks very different near William Ck to what it does near Mulloorina Stn north of Marree. If you are in the area it is probably having a look at both areas. Great camping at Mulloorina.

Jealous again
Duncs.

Ring the cafe or the pub at William Creek, and the pub at Marree. They will have the lastest info, besides what you read here. Ask for the latest information from the pilots in both locations.

Enjoy

Just for your information

Lake Eyre is a dry salt lake and has been like that for a few thousand years. Occasionally when there is excessive rain and the rivers flood the lake might hold some water. Then it is something to behold.

I was up at Madigan Gulf in May and the lake was as dry as a bone.

Take a flight over it as this will be well worth the effort, water or not.

Was there in late June and you could stand on the waters edge at Lake Ayre South and it was awsome.

When we were there in June there was plenty of water in Lake Eyre South. In fact a couple who pulled in at the same time as us drove right down to the water's edge. Don't know how quickly it dries up though.

was there week and half ago......could see water from oodnadatta road at lake eyre south...but at muloorina at lake eyre north...couldn't see a drop.

Have fun anyway!
Cheers
Mick.
