Good to see how the crossing came together for the various crews.
This adventure is definitely on my bucket list.
Thanks for putting this video up
We were on the track late November 2017 had not scene any one on the track for 3 days, after a stop over at the swimming holes, got stuck at Nolans just after lunch in my Perentie 6x6, walked out to the road next morning just before getting to the end of the track 2 toyotas 79 series came along heading south on there way to Weipa and snatched us out, just a small part of a very interesting trip to the cape and back, great video as it brought many happy thoughts
Great work getting the straps set up in advance.👍
Chest height deep and an average 4wd turns into a boat and isn't going anywhere. Doesn't take a huge amount of effort to pull it out when it's boat, but time is of the essence. Don't want to be waiting around while it sinks.
Hand held radios and having a director of operations might've helped in getting out a bit bit quicker.
I spend hours watching RUclips over landing ,some day bucket list , old tele, gun shot, Nolans creek cape York, taz Fraser Island , Morton not doing tourist stuff you see in the travel folders first I have to get there from the states
When you get here there will be so many adventure tracks to take, we are more than happy to give you tips for a lots of non-tourist stuff.
@@openroadtouring2410 good morning its 6;20 am aug 15 Sunday morning in so. calif usa not sure what time it is there ?have to save up want to be there at least 2-3 mos hire a lc troopy to live in.

Looks like the Snorkel will be getting a workout on my 76 series. Should be interesting! Cheers.
Great video 👍☺️👍
If there’s no on the other side doing these rescues when i get there then im doing a u turn 🤣
Yes you really shouldn’t do it if your alone. Lots of cars have drowned. Electrics stuffed after water gets in
Goodonya Dave you're a legend! lol
What Australia all about Camaraderie
Yes, that’s exactly the vibe up at Cape York, just awesome
Did yous remember windows all up fan full to fresh air this slightly pressurises cabin so less water enters if any 👍
should reverse the tow car further in use one strap and have the tow car keep strap tensioned,
also ive never needed to be towed through, can easily be driven, also had to tow many cars out
Nice footage....what date at Nolan's was it? We got back from the Cape a couple of weeks ago and went through Nolan's on Friday 28th. Just interested to see if it was earlier. looks about the same depth though.
That was on 2nd of June. So the water depth would have been the same. Made it a beautiful spot for swimming tho - crystal clear and warm with a sandy bottom
Yes we did it on the 19th of May and had a few more inches. Was a very wet April so good job by all. Just an honour to be up there at all. Great vid guys, thank you.
Floated my pajero through the middle of route 3, then everyone else hugged the left of route three and had zero dramas.
These cars are entering too slowly, you want to keep a bow wave for as long as you can when doing deeper water crossings
As long as you dont send a fan through a radiator
why does everyone do 2 straps,,, should set both cars up closer with a single strap,, less issues with people running over straps.. simply keep tension on the strap the water thats knee deep is usualy fairly hard unless you spin your wheels and creek pulls are more about steady tension rather then the jerking snatch style recovery
Why
