Lake Eyre

Hi Graeme
I will not comment in Lake Eyre, but seeing that you are so close to the Cooper Creek crossing of the Birdsville Track, do yourself a favour an head up there while you are in the neighbourhood. While you are there have a ride on the ferry. We are also up that way again in just over a week and I hope the rain holds out, as there is more rain expected this week.

Have a great trip and please head up to the ferry, it will be well worth it.

Cheers

Hi Graeme,
I was up there a few weeks ago and went out to Lake Eyre via Muloorina Station to Level Post Bay. The water was 3km in from the shoreline. I did not walk in the see it but by the looks of the track on the salt, many had.

Spoke with a friend on the weekend who was in that area a couple weeks back and went out to Lake Eyre from Williams Creek. He said the water was only 100mt from the shoreline. Did not ask about bird life out there but you can camp on that side of the lake unlike at Level Post Bay where camping is back at Muloorina Station.

Cheers Matt

Thanks for that - might do Williams Creek as base, I love that pub.

Lake eyre from north of William Creek 2 weeks ago

Hi Graeme, just got back from there, we were there a week ago and it was fantastic. Camped at Haligan Bay just out of William Creek and the water was about 100 metres from where our camp nly birds we saw were seagulls but even that was pretty special. Seeing the huge expanse of water out there was truly amazing and the area is so green at the moment. My advice? do it!
