ExplorOz Newsletter - Issue 200

Special 200th Edition of the ExplorOz Newsletter

You may recall our recent poll asked "Which ExplorOz sticker would you place on your vehicle?". It was clear almost from the beginning that the original round design was favoured and by the end of polling, almost 50% of respondents voted "round". We've responded to your feedback and have returned to the original round design. All shop orders have been going out with a free round sticker now for about a week.

Ournew poll starts today and asks for your thoughts about travelling the region known as the The Explorer Highway (Way), which links the journey between Alice Springs and Adelaide. ExplorOz has offered to support current research being conducted by the tourism industry together with businesses in the region. Your response to our new poll will assist in providing some baseline information for the project.

Did you know that insects aren't attracted to the yellow light spectrum? That's why this new product is exceptional. The Twin Duo (Yellow or White) LED Strip Lights have 40 of each colour LEDs, that’s double the amount of LEDs of the standard Duo 90 Strip Lights. At approximately 2 cm wide and 90cm long they can be fitted into very thin, unobtrusive locations, and are ideal for use in camper trailers, caravans, tents, vehicles, boats, yachts and horse floats, they are especially effective when used under vehicle awnings.

For the brightest white light output, we also have the new Twin 90 Flex White LED Strip Lights with two rows of bright white LEDs.

Treks in the far North to the far South!!!

Gregory NP is around 13,000 square kms comprising two sections - a smaller northeast section along the Victoria Hwy and a much larger southern section between the Victoria and Buntine Highways. This trek, which is entirely in the latter, contains a network of rather challenging four wheel driving in a very remote and scenic region, taking in famous icons such as the Bullita Stock Route. Click for Gregory NP

Starting at Balladonia Road House, this trek leads travellers across vast, almost treeless, grasslands of the Nullarbor through thickly wooded areas to Toolinna Cove. On the way, explore Five Ways Well, sink holes, ruins of a telegraph linesman’s hut, rock holes and a tank, before reaching the spectacular 75 metre high Baxter’s Cliffs at Toolinna Cove.

Attendance Request for National Gathering

We are concerned at the number of people who have put their names down to attend the 2010 ExplorOz National Gathering. The host venue cannot cater for excessive numbers so we need to know if alternative camping arrangements are necessary. Please help us plan this event by removing your name from the list unless you are committed to being there. Go to the 2010 National Gathering page and press the 'Unable to Attend' button.
