Image Could Not Be FoundHi All,
I have just returned from a 2 week "Corner Crawl" trip with the 4WD Club of which I am a member. The "Corner Crawl" trip was designed to take us to Camerons Corner,
Haddon Corner &
Poeppel Corner. Whilst we were 1 week too early to make it through to
Poeppel Corner as Eyre Creek was still impassable, we did reach the other 2.
The trip that we did can be seen on my trek notes connected to my profile. It was an awesome trip that took in the
Strzelecki Track,
Birdsville Track & the start of the
Oodnadatta Track. The Simpson in flood, the
Cooper Creek ferry & water in
Lake Eyre were all special experiences that don,t come about every day.
5866km's in 12 days, 8 cars & a fantastic group of people. A trip that I will remember for a long time. And I did it all in a Nissan X-trail! For all you non-beleivers, the photo below shows me on the roof of my car at the top of Big Red!
If you get the chance to go out - take it! Our gorgeous country has such a diverse range of terrain, experiences & landscapes - we certainly live in the "lucky Country"
Happy Travels!
