Cape Bertholet to Beagle Bay

Thanks Tony.

Hi Nick,

I had a look on 4x4 Earth. They showed the track finishing around Cape Bertholet.

I've found Google Earth shows old tracks that aren't always possible to follow.

The main attraction is the adventure, going where not many others go and a bit of a challenge.

I usually leave the navigating up to the missus, until we get lost and then I make a quiet suggestion sometimes. We always end up somewhere, even if we get lost...

We're heading from Broome to Cape Leveque mid August. We plan on taking the track to Derby from Beagle Bay, by way of Fraser River on the way back . That one looks like it's definitely a goer.

We still just use paper maps which have served us well. One of our mates coming has the Hema maps on an Ipad2. It worked well in the Vic High Country over Christmas but we still use it as a back up for tracks we've missed.

What is the osm that we could get maps from?

Hoo roo,
Steve

Google earth 2006 ......but map said 2012 .... but gives idea of terrain .

osm ...open street map ...have a read on net .

We too will be up that way in juneish

Will the ipad work up there , location , coverage , etc

do you have GPS or similar

good luck nick

Thanks again.

The iPad with Wi-Fi + 3G has GPS, I'm pretty sure.
Through the High Country my mates was as good as any other GPS, whether we were at the top of a mountain or in the deepest valley.

I'll do some Googling.

Steve
