- There’s NO TURNING BACK NOW, we have to keep driving across the SIMPSON DESERT, one of the most remote places in Australia, this is Outback Australia in the Red Centre. This is part 2 of our Overland Travel Documentary in the Simpson Desert on an epic 4X4 road-trip as we travel Australia in our 70 Series Landcruiser (79 Series) and rooftop tent. In this episode we continue along the WAA line and onto the Knolls track, doing offgrid off-road camping along the track after some hard days driving up some massive sand dunes and across vast salt lakes. We discuss the requirements you need to travel across the Simpson Desert such as Desert Parks Pass, high visibility flag and UHF radio on channel 10.
We discuss how much water and fuel we use as we travel, as there’s no where to get fuel or water until we reach Birdsville. We also show real life, travel life on the road as it happens.

Congratulations guys you have really found your groove. Looking back comparing your old videos with your more recent … what a difference. Especially enjoying the fact that you aren’t following the other dozens of RUclipsrs all doing the same thing and the same destinations/ routes with the same boring footage.
How refreshing that you are secure enough to do your own thing. Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much Kevin, we really do appreciate it. Glad you’re enjoying our videos 🤩👍
Thanks again guys great episode nice driving Denise 😊 look forward to the final SD episode.
@@barrydixon1 thanks Barry, I was a bit nervous of some of the steep dunes but Gaz always gives me the confidence 👍🤩
Cracking episode again guys, really enjoy your posts. Cheers 😊😊
Cheers 👍 Glad you’re enjoying our videos 😊
you guys have done everything spot on have worked out there for 25 year you guys done well landcriuser work the gears enjoy to good
Thank you so much, really appreciate that as we’ve never done anything quite like this before, a few sand dunes but nothing as large as the ones in The Simpson 👍
Awesome video.
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it 👍🤩
Such a fun episode. My goodness,Australia is so beautiful.
Doing the French Line in June. Can't wait!
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it. You will have a blast, we absolutely loved every second of it 🤩👍
Looking forward to Pt 3 of the Simpson.
Thanks guys, glad you’re enjoying the journey through the desert, part 3 will be out next Sunday. 🤩
Enjoyed this episode. Looks like a gruelling sort of journey though. Well done!
Thank you, glad you enjoyed our videos. It is tough but thoroughly enjoyable at the same time 👍🤩
Well I have officially moved into my new chapter of life, saving madly for a few months then hitting the road to WA. Hope to catch you guys out there someday 🥰
Congratulations, we’re so pleased for you. Yes, we might see you on the road someday 🤩👍
Lovely Ep and trip so far guys, You made us want to do that trip now one day,
Thanks Craig, glad we have inspired you to want to do this trip, you won’t regret it 🤩👍
@@turtletrackstravels Noe worries loved it,
@craigtomkinson2837 cheers 👍🤩
what a pair of adventurers you two are! great vid and fabulous drone work! hey Gazza - what brand of sand flag is that?
We love being adventurous, keeps us alive lol 😂. We got the Drifta flag 👍🤩 Glad you enjoyed the drone footage 👍
Another great episode in the desert. Just wondering whats next???
Thank you Lyn 🤩 Well what’s next? We have a few decisions to make…..fancy a trip through Outback NSW, into VIC, Flinders, Oonadatta and hopefully Tassie….but haven’t made any decisions yet, after we finish Australia we want to ship a vehicle to Indonesia…….watch this space! 🤩
Hi guys I’m a recent convert to your channel , refreshingly genuine and beautiful country. Can’t wait for the nest video. Travel safe.
@neilthorman3646 Thanks Neil, glad you’re enjoying our videos. Hope you have a great weekend 🤩👍
@turtletrackstravels wow sounds great. Whatever you decide it will be great viewing. We haven't been to any of those places yet.
@ Thanks Lyn 👍
Just wondering how long you have carried your fresh fruit and vegetables as you seem to manage to keep it all looking very fresh ? Your meals look superb . We can understand how tiring this drive must be with the concentration and the terrain . Thanks for the journey , glad it’s you not us …….we’er too old but it was very interesting following your expedition .
Glad we could take you along for the ride through our videos. It was very tiring from all the concentration. We stock up when we can, after completing the Tanami we restocked in Alice Springs before heading back into the desert, can usually stock a week to 2 weeks fresh stuff, just depends on what we buy, 🤩👍
Great Vid... Not sure why you would lock the canopy ?? We have a planned E-W trip ....One Day...
Good question! We lock because of all the bumps and any corrugated sections, it will stop a lock from potentially rattling loose and coming undone 👍
Exactly what I thought when I noticed you unlock 👍 an extra precaution.
@@barrydixon1 it makes sense 🤩👍
Hi awesome video really enjoyed the series. I’m planning on doing the Simpson desert later this year. Just wondering What time of year did you do it?
Glad you’re enjoying our videos, we did the Simpson in September 🤩
Awesome, thank you very much. We are looking at doing it in August. Travel safe. PS you need to come down to Tazzy not as hot as the desert but awesome scenery
@jjexplore9678 we’re thinking of heading down this year to Tassie 👍 Glad you’re doing the Simpson, it’s such a fun experience
“This” turtle thinks “oh dear, what a giveaway”
🤣
@ laugh if you wish “dear”, but “snapping turtles” tend to make very damned sure of themselves before they decide to promote themselves as being anything other than your worse nightmare!
@1ihws not sure how this relates to our video of travelling across the desert
@ oh you’ll find out - and it’ll probably the hard way, just like all the rest of the people who “think” they know what they don’t know, and would like to convince us they have all the knowledge and experience to tout themselves as a travel channel!
@1ihws we never claim to know everything, we just film what we’re doing, watch or scroll on
Good one. I know it's cliche to say, but the camera/video never does justice on how steep some of those dunes can be. And why so much dirt in your canopy with the water spillage? Isn't your canopy sealing the dust well?
It is well sealed but i think after several months on the road it has built up from lifting things in and out and you don’t wipe off the bottom of the boxes before putting back in and then the dirt gets trapped under the rubber mat 👍
that hole looks to close for me. 😲😲😲😲
👍😂😂 Lucky, we didn’t get to see what lived down there 👍
