Their were a number of points that I was uncertain about Ian.
The lower track section of track had changed and the plots we had
from this site could not be used, but we were supplied gps
waypoints of the new alternate route, but there was no visible track
and in
bright sunlight the GPS's were very hard to use with the "Goto"
next waypoint function.
An important turn off east, hard to see, around 200m south of our first
camp site.
The fact that at our
camp 3 was the
Hay river bed a couple of km
to the west which we discovered by accident and driving this bed
became a highlight.
The fact that insect count was almost zero in june 2006.
That Baton
hill is not an actual community, but a campground
with 1 house and around 5 people 200m away.
The documents we received said no alcohol and no pictures and
first thing said to us on arrival was "alcohol and picture taking ok"
I did a large report for 4 wheeling oz, discussing some issues
, which I don't think is out yet but which is on our Yahoo email
list site in files section if you have a yahoo id.
