Whatever the weather, we're off.

It looks like the weather may make for an interesting trip.

Our next great adventure is planned for 4 weeks, departing Sunday week (14/9/08). A small convoy of 5 vehicles head off to Killarney (the most easterly point on the QLD/NSW border up on the Downs).

We then meander west, following the border as closely as possible to Hungerford. From here we head due west following the dog fence, with permission from Bulloo Downs to cross their property, including a visit to the Bulloo Lakes.

Down through Warri Gate to Tibooburra, then Milparinka and loop west up to Cameron’s Corner. Up to Innamincka and its environs (Dig Tree, Coongie Lake etc).

Over Walker’s and Warburton Crossings and up to Peoppel Corner, in to Birdsville to re-provision, then back to Poeppel and up the Hay River to Jervois, west then north through Ammaroo and Davenport Range to Barkly Homestead.

Here we part company, with the others continuing north to the Gulf and we turn right and follow the Barkly Highway back to QLD. From The Isa, down through Boulia and Diamantina Lakes to Stonehenge, Adavale then Charleville and back home.

That’s the plan but no doubt, the weather may have the final say, but it certainly should be interesting.

Cheers
