I'm off to the desert for a few weeks.
Leaving tomorrow morning for something along the lines of:
Dubbo, Condobolin, Hillston, Wentworth, Renmark, Danggali Conservation Park, Yunta, The Flinders, Oodnadatta, Simpson, K1, Warburton Track, down to Mungerannie, maybe out to Kalamurina, back to Maree,Leigh Creek then across into Gammon Ranges, Corner Country before making our way across to Louth for the races and the (official) finish of the trip.
Should be back around 14th Aug - If you are out and about listen for mob 7669 on VKS skeds.

Was on a trip through Alice Springs in 1985 when they commissioned the first set of lights - handed out flyers on what to do !!

I remember taking a quick day trip out to Kalamurina years ago (from Mungerannie). IMO it was well worth it. Despite it being a dry year at the time, the cattle looked fat and I managed to catch and release a few solid little spangled perch off a snag in Warburton Creek. Not bad for a desert in the middle of winter :)
Enjoy :) It's making me homesick. I'm in London at the moment and not home until 19 July.
Cheers

Well after a long day from Louth back to home we are back, arrived home around 8pm last night. Now to start the mammoth job of unpacking, downloading, cleaning and assessing the Landy.
Was a tough trip with a few 'incidents'(two of which could have been very expensive show stoppers), but all will be revealed eventually in a trip report I'll start over the next couple of evenings.
Did manage to catch up with a couple of Aulroians through the trip.
