Road trip to Mount Isa - Avon
Position 20 01.50S 137 29.38E Free camped at Avon – opposite the last police station in Northern Territories. Here’s some photos of the scenery. Red dirt, spinifex and a few trees as far as the eye can see. Bit more grass and some termite or any hills. More red dirt.. More termite / ant hills Bit more grass.. Some scrub.. More scrub Bit of grass and trees Just grass. Finally, our night rest stop We arrived at 3pm by 4:30pm it was chocka. Parked van (getting photo crazy here). Paul have a jaw. Empty cattle truck parked at the police station. There are strict regulation here about transportation of animals and fruit and veg. Presumably the driver had some sort of document that said his rig was ‘clean’ of mites and noxious weeds. Or rather cattle train. These trains can be up to about 53m long. That’s longer than our boat, but Annie it’s the same size as Karacool. |
