We went into
Coppins Gap last year and one of our number plunged into a
pool, stalled it and promptly drowned his vehicle.
Had to get towed to Marbel Bar and flatbedded to
Karratha to have a new computer fitted.
If he'd walked it and taken a different line it wouldn't have happened.
Nice spot though but we may not have time for too many side trips this time.
While working at Bamboo Creek years ago I took some of the lads on a trip to
Shay Gap when it was still in existence, but the river (De
Grey I think) was running too high to risk crossing it in a coaster bus!
So we just sat in the shade and drank beer instead.
Happy motoring.
Alan.
