Where is it?

[TPC]

Hamelin Bay?
They were big clues.

[Cuppa]

Rodent island! LOL.

Yeah, Hamelin Bay, down below Margaret River, WA.

I guess you could've gone for Hamelin Pool a bit further north, where the stromatolites are.

Back to you TPC

Cuppa I've been tracking some of your travels, read your trip report with your son and am I ever envious. Wish I could have done all that.
Thanks for sharing the experience and starting this thread, really enjoying it.

I am running out of digital photos, will have to scan some of the old printed ones or go on more trips to get more photos.
Would love to do a trip like yours Cuppa, I think we are all envious.

What creek is this?
This was meant to be a crossing point.

[TPC]

Not Cooper creek and the photo is not in SA.

Eyre Creek in the Simpson?

[Cuppa]

Anywhere near Birdsville?

Eyre Creek in the Simpson?

Eyre Creek is right, about 1 km ahead was Madigan camp 20 but could not get near it as the creek was about 1.5km wide there.
We spent the next few days heading south looking for a crossing point and constantly getting bogged.
This crossing via Madigan line took us 4 days more than we expected and were eating emergency rations of canned food by the end and beer ran out on last day.
Was probably the most fun we have ever had.

Sounds like a great trip TP,

What time of year did you go and what year?

The amount of water this wall holds back is massive.
