Off the Beaten Track to Outback Australia - 1 day to go

One more day before I head Off the Beaten Track
to Outback South Australia.

The white 4 wheel drive looks sparkling clean at the moment (clean cars travel faster than dirty cars!) but should end up a different colour once we hit the dirt roads. Hope it stops raining enough for the roads to dry out.



Day Four is Marree to Cooper Creek or a Lake Eyre flight depending on the weather.

I'll post when I can.

Off the Beaten Track with Fran West - 1 week till launch

In a week's time I'll be heading Off the Beaten Track to the Flinders Ranges, Gammon Ranges, Lake Eyre and the Cooper Creek. In other words, I'll be heading to Outback South Australia.

As well as the sightseeing, there will be a ride on the Pichi Richi Railroad, hot air ballooning near Wilpena Pound and a flight over Lake Eyre.


This photo of Wilpena Pound was taken during Sea, Sky and Sand, a fundraising flight I did for the Royal Flying Doctor Service in 2002.

Off the Beaten Track with Fran West

The next adventure's coming up soon from the 4th to 12th September.

We've actually had some rain in Australia this year and I'm heading up through the Flinders Ranges and Gammon Ranges to photograph Lake Eyre and the Cooper Creek in flood. The last time the Cooper Creek was in flood was in 1991, so it's going to be an exciting trip.

More about the trip will be posted soon. Stay tuned.
