Just got back from a week in western NSW and loved It. Travelled into Mungo nat park. What a great spot we spent 3 nights there.
Top temp of 38 degress no humidity so it wasnt to bad.
Day 2 started with rain the
ranger was very excited but we were not, was in the end only about 5mm.
We then went to Pooncaire and over to wilandra nat park.
This was also very interesting and the
home stead was a lovely place to spend a few hours wandering about. They have done a great job restoring it.
All in all we had a ball.
All the best
Eric

The perimeter road was closed when we were there, but we were able to drive out to the lunettes. It started raining about dusk and just belted. Fortunately, we were in the shearers quarters, which were quite comfortable. Had a huge night in the dining / kitchen, with open fire (plenty of wood supplied) loads of good wine and port and rain on the roof. The drive out was veeeery interesting, as was the rest of the day going up through
Pooncarie, which had just had a massive hail storm, then on through the mud to
Wilcannia and onto
White Cliffs. Memories of
White Cliffs are all about rain. Got stuck in the pub (damn!!?) for about an hour due to a torrentian downpour, then had to dig trenches around the tents at the caravan park.
Happy
trails, Mike.

And we thought 5mm was uncomfortable.
All the best
