Lovely new scenery running up to Wiluna. Lovely gumtrees in the red dirt and lakes! Met up with Rusty at Wiluna and made our way to Well and North Pool. North Pool is a stunning little oasis. We are camping here tonight
Tonight I’m certainly filled with excitement but also concern. I think we have everything in order to make the trip.
It went below 0 last night making getting out of bed a bit hard. Across the Nullarbor today. The views from Madura pass were outstanding! We stopped about 350km in to fill up from Jerry cans (the road houses are fairly expensive, and rightfully so).
Bromas dam would be lovely if it wasn’t for the rain. The sunset makes up for it. I hope it doesn’t get too wet over night, I hate camping in the wet.
I feel like it’s a shame we left so early. We arrived last night in the dark and left before light, so I never got a chance to actually see Port Augusta. I guess maybe another time.
Once the sun rose we were treated with some lovely scenery, low sparse bushes across deep orange sands. Skippy even came to say hello. A little further along and we were back to lush green fields again. And rain, lots of rain.
Today we tested our fuel tanks and apart from some spills they all look good.
I’ve always wanted to see the Great Australian Bight, and it does not disappoint. Even though it’s not the purpose of this trip, we still got to see a teaser of it from one of the look outs and wow!
