Off Into The Abyss...And Beyond

Saying goodbye to Mark and Linda we headed toward Charters Towers, the road was not entirely scenic however one has to tie the coolas bits together with a few transit roads.


The history at Charters Towers was awesome with big ties back to Marks family.






After staying in Charters Towers we bailed south again ending up at Bedford Weir, a very nice place indeed, yarning with some locals they too recommended Carnarvon Gorge so our sites were set.



Blackwater just around the corner we decided take the opportunity to repair Skippys sidecar mudguard that was slowly tearing, some serious size washers and grunty braces for a bit or AU cash and we were on our way.




Yet again we peeled off through shortcut backroads which are much nicer than the traffic infested main roads.

Carnarvon Gorge, BIG4…..can highly recommend it, beautiful setting and awesome campground.

We spent 4 days in total wondering around like lost muppets enjoying the landscape with my fav being the Amphitheatre, nothing short of a geological meca.

The entire gorge is full of cool features carved by mum nature and the top lookout view was well worth the hoof to the top.









You can just keep taking photo after photo, at some point you have to cut it and just enjoy your time there and appreciate this epic world.
