To Anne Beadell travellers
Is there any water in
Serpentine lakes ,I am making the enquiry for a friend who is leaving
Melbourne next weekend . I did the Anne Beadell in 1998 in a 3 car convoy and we left a galvanised container and visitors book at the WA/
SA border , is it still there ? We took along Len Beadells book pertaining to that track and actually found one of his camps east of the lakes , with old oil and fuel filters where the equipment had been serviced while the men waited for Len to return from a forward scouting/surveying trip . We met the Wa police east of
Neale junction who were on a scouting mission to the
SA border to meet the Cooper Pedy police and gather infomation . due to the fact that more traffic was using the
Anne Beadell highway and the police from both states did not really know what was along the track if they were called upon. To all future travellers take your time and have a good look around [we took 13 days to complete the trip ] you may not get back there
