Some burnt things on the Gunbarrel

Hi Rocco,
It's a pity, however the corrugations remain unfortunately :-)

Hi Anthony,
That would be great to see some not to old pictures for comparison.
My pictures here are just the features, there are also huge areas stretching for kilometres, all burnt.
Cheers

Hi Allan

Sorry about the delay in posting these, I got back and forgot I had to go to work - Oh! the inconvenience of it all!

I have tried to sequence these the same as you original post for comparison.Some are of the general area of yours.



















Just wondering if you noticed if the warning sign I put up at the wash away (photo below) into Mount Beadell is still there?

You come of a good section, around a blind bend into it. We hit it doing about 40 km/h - both the camper trailer and the 100 series took big hits - fortunately no damage.

It did cause the "Nagivator" to comment:

"...if you ever (expletives removed) complain about me hitting a (more expletives removed) curb in you precious (oh! now I'm in trouble) landcruiser again, you can (still not happy!) drive yourself...!

mmmm! oh the possibilities!



Cheers

Anthony

Why do the go sideways?

They were straight up and down when I took them!

Cheers

Hi Anthony,
Thanks for the pictures; what a change 5 months can make.

I bet the kids had a ball.

Sorry to say I didn't see your warning sign. That's not to say it wasn't there - glad I wasn't there to hear your "navigator" go off lol......

Here's a couple more pics.

Gee guys shes the best copilot I've ever had- lets me know when its time to stop for morning tea lol...
Youll have to go and check out the other fires Mick, I'l keep an eye out for the professor.
Cheers guys

Hi Dunc,
Some of those plaque trees came very close to being burnt down, just luck I guess!
Cheers

Gday Phil,
I guess that is the natural order of things (generally)
In five years or so we will hardly notice.
Some areas that were burnt maybe last year already have regrowth up to 20cms high.
I hope all is well in Perth.
Cheers

Hi Alan

Not hijacking your post, but here are some images of what the country is usually like for those that have not been fortunate to travel another great destination in WA.


















Looking forward to your next updates.

What happened to to bore pump?

Hi John

The handle was seized or the brass rod had broken and someone tried to repair it I believe. That yellow tie down strap was holding the poly that went down to the water level in place.

I have posted that image a while ago and one of the members was going that way and was going to try and fix it. Weather it was successful we never heard of any outcome.



Cheers

Hi Stephen,

Hi Graeme,
Thanks, it does all look a bit sad doesn't it.

I'm using the Samsung Tablet (which has Ozi on it) and can only access the net when in range of 3G.

I'm writing this now from Karumba, sitting in the Fair Maid, looking out over the Gulf for the very first time.

All the best
Alan

Hi Graeme,
Not this time, saw them in the distance though.
Cheers Alan

Hi John and Jean,

Thanks for the pictures. It looks like the Bushtracker is the go then, for those rough type of tracks.

Cheers
Alan
