Sadly the weather as the southern end of the
Birdsville Track was not what we wanted for a trip up the track, so on a rainy morning we turned south from
Lyndhurst, instead of heading north and headed for
home instead. A couple of days later I understand that the camel races were cancelled in
Bedourie because of rain. May be next year for the Track.
Since coming
home I have put a video together and posted a version of it on You Tube. Photography suffers when carried out through the windows of an aircraft and any images put to You Tube suffer from low definition so the result here is a but unsatisfactory. But have a look if you are interested. The video might help you to understand the layout of the water courses in the Lake Eyre and
Simpson Desert area and perhaps grasp an understanding of the shear size and scope of the region.
The link is below.
