Meet my 90, and share the adventure.

You, sir, are a genius!
I'd noticed that they were at different angles to the body, but didn't think about re-jigging the RHS mirror to clear. I put it down to one of those oddball defender things.
They've been cock-eyed since the day I bought it.

Really enjoyed your Tuff Truck pics. I went some years ago and enjoyed watching the lads showing off. Some of the runs were crazy. As you said, part of the camping area does get feral.

Departed home in the wee hours of 13.04.2017. The plan was to attend a Land Rover show in Melrose South Australia over the easter weekend, and return home via outback Australia, ticking off a bucket list item at Cameron Corner NSW- the point where three state borders meet.

First stop was for a photo op in Mulalley NSW en route to Parkes NSW (home of the radio telescope).

Rendezvous with Billy, on our way to Balranald NSW for the first night's stop. I think this is the plains outside of Balrenald.

Suddenly, a wild windmill appears!

Ceremonial burning of the faggot. Gotta keep that fire roaring.

Mundi Mundi Lookout, Silverton NSW. This is where the opening chase for Mad Max 2 was filmed.

Heading north on the Silver City highway NSW. Much flat. Very long. Wow.

Refuel at Packsaddle roadhouse, Packsaddle NSW

Wrapped my chops around one of their steaks for lunch, washed down with a XXXX Gold. Was so good after a solid morning on the road!

https://www.aulro.com/afvb/images/im...017/04/415.jpg
50km north of Packsaddle the highway was dual purposed as a emergency runway.

At the end of the runway was the Tool Tree.

Milparinka NSW. The mountain here is the site of Sturt's Cairn. Charles Sturt and his crew camped here for 6 months in 1845 during a drought, and camped nearby at Depot Glen.

Tibooburra NSW. Nice little town, and a good base for exploring 'Corner Country' (Cameron's Corner).

I was travelling solo at this stage... so a little stir crazy, the car got all the photographic attention. Selfies are for mugs.

On the road to cameron corner there was a clay pan you drive over. It was the 'golden hour' right on dusk with some nice light, so got some glamour shots of the mule.

Camped at the Fort Grey camp ground in teh Sturt National Park. So quiet that your ears ring during the night. Many stars too. Bugs galore were attracted to the light I had.

Early the next morning (broke camp around 0430), I trucked the remaining 20 kays to the corner.

Look at this tosser. What a mug.

Back home Via the Cut line- Tibooburra to Wanaaring then on to Bourke. This is the path of a telegraph line of days gone. About 500km of dirt roads between remote towns.
Road conditions were 'interesting'. Road between Tibooburra and Wanaaring was good, albeit a little corrugated. The road from Wanaaring to Bourke was abysmal. Bulldust, corrugations and truck tyre tracks which were skidding all across the 15m wide formed 'road'. White knuckle driving indeed! Had a few poop your pants moments when the 90 started a 4-wheel powerslide at close to 100 on the big sweeping bends. Lets you know you're alive.

Cotton Harvest in Bourke NSW. The big modules on the left are fed into the gin where it is processed into bales, which is then woven into fabric for shirts etc.

After the cannonball run back from Cameron Corner to Tamworth in one sitting, I made it back to landcruiser country before midnight.

Great report mate!!
Well done!

Thanks Mitch. Makes me wish I had a few more days.
