I have an ex boss who's moved on and is now a Director within the State Government.
He's now finding out what true Bulltish is about and wants to get away over
Easter (
Alice Springs) and surrounding areas.
His aim is to do a bit of walking in the Western Macdonnell and get away from the pressures of working life.
Since this is not my scene, can I ask for meaningful trek (walking) ideas and
places of interest please (not you Hairy).
Regards
Kim

Hairy
Thanks for that. I'd be interested in talking to the guy.
I'm trying to establish if the first cattle drive from Billiluna Station to
Alice Springs resulted in the opening of
the Tanami Track.
It could be that the Tanami was the result of Chinese mining interest in the area and the stock route was further South of the present day road. Who knows.
There's also some conjecture as to who lead the first drive.
Be interesting to get some feed back from your mate. My e-mail address is kimmc@satlink.com.au
Regards
Kim
