RE: Ngarkat/Riverland Rick & Casnat

too much riving and no time for the nectar of the gods! hehehe....shorten it and i will ask the ankle biters

Hmmmmmm sounds like a MAYBE. LOL

Dean,
I tend to agree with you, a bit too much for 3 days. You can spend a week plus, just in Sunset & Ngarkat. There is so much to see in these adjoining areas. If you have no info on these areas, let me know and can help you out

We came from Yunta down the backway through Danggali to renmark last October and it took about 5hrs to get down without stopping to look at anything. Was a good drive but like everywhere else it is very dry up there. Hope the weather forecast for rain on Tuesday will be right.
You will need to book at Danggali to camp as the areas for camping are restricted.
The ranger there is Mate Osborne and his phone no. is 08 8595 8010 take him a copy of the Advertiser and he'll love you for it.
If you want to camp on the river, there are plenty of camp sites around Chowilla, at Lyrup, Katarapko as the long weekend is usually quiet here. Nights are frosty now.
The Border track south of Pinnaroo is closed until decent rains occur but the run from Murtho down to Pinnaroo is OK. Don't follow the track all the way down to the bitumen at Pinnaroo but turn of a couple of k's before so you don't pass through the road block.
You could spend the 3 days just doing that bit if you stop to smell the roses although not many rose bushes out there. LOl

Hi Dean,
Sounds a bit much mate, what about 1st night Danggali, through Burra, 2nd night Murray Sunset somewhere while doing border track and others, and then home via Pinnaroo?
Just a suggestion mate and we would be interested for sure, nothing like a good YAK around camp fire!
Have a plan for wet weather as most parks will be off limits if its been raining.
Cheers Mate catch up soon.
