NORMANTON TO LEICHHARDT RIVER
Burke and Wills crossed this massive country from South to North in 1860 and along the way set up many camps mainly on creeks or rivers. The most Northern of which" Camp 119" falls just short of their destination, The gulf Of Carpentaria.
The Savannah Way heads west from Normanton and too crosses many rivers that find their way to The Gulf. Even though technology today has made life a lot easier for the modern traveller camping on the banks of rivers and creeks such as the Leichhardt River is still a favourite pastime.

In this series I am venturing along the Savannah Way from Cairns to Darwin. My first stop is the Undara Lava Tubes. These are a rare geological phenomenon formed by a subterranean lava flow whereby the outer crust hardens and the centre still flowing , empties leaving a cave.
THE TOP END
Просмотров 2716 месяцев назад
The very top of Australia is on every four wheel drive enthusiasts bucket list incuding mine. In this case both the journey and the destination presented its fair share of challenges. Once the tip had been conquered I ventured on, via Somerset to the five beaches track. An experience I will never forget
PUNSAND BAY AND WW II AIRCRAFT DISASTERS
Просмотров 2787 месяцев назад
During WW II any threat to Australia it was believed, would come from the north, therefore, the top of our country was heavily fortified. Air traffic was intense, no more so than at the main point of focus, the airstrip. With so much activity concentrated in the same airspace things were bound to go wrong , and they did. Today we can still see the evidence of some of those aircraft that did not...

A few K's back down the Old Telegraph Track from Eliot Falls and also on the Eliot River is Fruit Bat Falls.Truly another great place to wash the dust off before heading north again towards the Jardine River. The ferry, during the dry season runs 24/7, allowing access to this increadible and most northern part of our country.

MAPOON

The fight between progress and traditional ways is what has shaped Mapoon today. Mining in the area is a billion dollar industry and today the big companys such as Rio Tinto work with the traditional owners of the land in a partnership designed to benifit both interests. It has not always been this way, history shows us just how rough the road to mutual respect can be.
MUSGRAVE TO WEIPA

Technical issues in this day and age are part of everyday life. In remote areas simple problems can soon escalate into serious ones. I will need to find power on a regular basis. With this in mind, I head to Weipa, one of the largest towns on the west coast of Cape York.
LAKE FIELD NATIONAL PARK

Lakefield National Park is a bush camping paradise. To get there I head from Cooktown via Battle Camp Road, traverse shallow river crossings and ingest my fair share of red dust.This is so off grid even the satellites can't find you. I love it.

good
This was very cool very informative. Thank you. Very enjoyable video. Wow what a journey.
Hope you dont mind the comments but wow stunning footage interesting location. Thank you for showing us. Your leaving a wonderful legacy for all by documenting this.
Beautiful clear footage, drone footage excellent too. Really enjoyable video. We really are living in a beautiful part of the world.
Love your video visit to Longreach and especially the Cobb & Co ride. The Station Store was one of my fave encounters when I trekked around Australia on my visit home from Canada last Aug/Sept. Lovely to see all the fun things they sell, esp. the toy emus. This is where I found and bought my own - Eduardo the Emotional Support Emu - who flew on over a dozen flights with me - QANTAS flight attendants made a fuss of him, too. LOL Thank you for posting this video which I will watch again and again to remember....
Hey Dodgy, thanks for your time compiling this. Keep them coming.
Impressively filmed and edited.
