Well guys its almost that time when the Simpson trip will begin... I wish all the travelers a safe and enjoyable journey and hope they have the time to take the odd photo for all us poor slobs that are stuck at home.

I wish I could have made this trip but with all thats gone on it would have been far to much strain.

This will be one of those great trips that you will take with you for the rest of your lives so enjoy !!!!!!!

Good luck and look forward to catching up with some of the Vic boys when they get back..... cheers!!

Our 1st outback trip in our new 4B was the Simpson in 2008, it is still with me, I hope all of you have the same feelings about that wonderful place.
Safe travels everyone.

To be honest my experience of the Simpson was hard yakka being only 5 and then 8 years old with the family going there twice.

I enjoyed it but I remember being so cramped in the back of the old hilux and on a tight schedule doing the around the oz trips so spent countless hours staring out the window mate so i am keen as mustard to take it easy and enjoying the place for what it is rather then hammering through to "keep on schedule"

Wow...that's a long sentence above...lol

Have an enjoyable and most of all, safe trip fellas. As AB said, rushing through it, defeats the purpose of it all. Very much looking forward to the trip report and awesome pics afterwards.

A friend who has made many desert crossings has a nice memento of his first. (Could've been the Simpson, but I'm not sure). He collected a small quantities of sand, & stored the samples in numbered plastic bags. Once home he carefully filled an attractive glass jar with the samples in order, giving multiple layers of different sand colours, some subtley different, some strikingly different. A nice memento.

I bought home some sand from Christies Beach in SAust, it's where my wife grew up. We spread it over our veggie patch on the Sunshine Coast. Each time we watered the garden, we'd talk about life growing up. :)

I did this with Ziplock Sandwich bags on the Madigan line and Zach did a school project. Amazing contrasts!!

Will certainly be doing it again, maybe every lunch and every camp for a good sample.

I did a Simpson trip back in 95 in a maverick with my dad sister and cousin it was a bloody tight squeeze with 4 people and all the gear for a 3 week trip that's for sure.
