After some delay, I have gotten around to doing a report (600+ pics to go through doesnt help lol)

While travelling to the 1st night's camp:


Venom, El Freddo, Dulagarl, Pezimm and myself met up at Snow Drift Campground in Wyperfeld NP



Next night was at Red Gum campground in Big Desert. After setting up camp we headed off for some fun at Thompson Peak Lookout, a massive, steep & very soft sand dune.

El Freddo:

Venom & myself:

The next day, El Freddo & I went into Pinaroo to fuel up & do some shopping. While returning we got the bad news about Pezimm's radiator

Can't find the link, will add later...

With Pezimm getting towed back to Pinaroo, we set off down the Border Tr with Subaruby joining us.

We said goodbye to Subyruby, 3rd night was at a burnt out campground where we were beseiged by bees! Found this awesome snake-looking grass tree:


The next day we continued down the Border Tr. Lots of wildlife:


At the end:


We said goodbye to Venom and continued on to the Little Desert. Some light drizzle kept the sand manageable but it was still soft & deep. The next day Dulagarl & El freddo left for home while I continued onto my next adventure...the Flinders Ranges

Looks like an awesome trip. Some of those tracks out there look like great fun, and the scenery is superb. Nice photography.
 
Agreed the scenery is simply stunning!!

Look forward to seeing the video where the Foz went swimming
