Photography Trip, QLD (Condamine Gorge) Expressions of interest

We'll be at the Servo on Johnson Road at or before 6:30.

How much rain does it take to make those river crossings difficult? :-)

a little more than we gonna get.They are not hard crossings. Just a little bumpy at times.

I've seen your idea of 'a little bit bumpy' Dave :-). I'll put the strap and bridle in in case it is too deep for lo rider Silver :-)

Without taking my idea of 4wding on board mate my touring is very sedate. Every time I have been there the crossings have been no more than about a foot deep.

Should be good then Dhuck, even for Silver :-).

I run my tinny in less water than that when chasing flathead :-)

lol I sold my tinny cause it sat in the garage. But I used to run mine up and down Pottsville Creek chasing flatties and muddies. That place is shallow at high tide.

Also the trek differs a little from the 3rd edition to the 5th.

I have the 5th edition Dave, this is what i intended to base the route on (as per PM), only to ensure we find ALL 14 river crossings, however, as long as we are @ Camp Lake Fire by about 4pm, its not super critical what path we take, as long as the group is all happy.

I am more than happy to lead or to follow, my odometer is not "100%" accurate, but should be OK for the job.

I have heard of many soft roaders doing the trip, so unless we have heaps of rain so the road is closed, we should be OK, just like water off a Dhucks tyres (ha-ha)

Assume you'll be taking up a collection for the glow sticks Steve? Cash or cans :-)
