Meetup in the middle 10 yrs on trip June 2024

[Stropp]

hi guys.

very very interested in this trip. however if it is on the road all day every day then unfortunately with the younguns its just not for us. whats the run down like for this trip> is it just driving everyday covering kms? or is there spots where we stay and enjoy for a while? tegans just validly pointed out that the kids wont fare well in the car all day

We could possibly leave earlier and meet at Coober Pedy say Friday 5th and leave on Sunday 7th July that way the victorians can take their time coming over as they start school holidays on the 1st ? And kallen and Nissa can leave on the Friday or Saturday and be there for departure on the Sunday. That also gives most people the opportunity to have a day to look around, or even happy to meet on say the Tuesday 2nd, leave Coober Pedy on Thursday 4th. From there to Oodnadatta and Dalhousie, definitely a day or 2 at Dalhousie during which time you would need to go to mount dare to top up fuel, that will also give us time to miss the big red bash by a couple of days and hopefully the track is not too chopped up. From there four days to cross so that should give us ample time as last time we took 3 days and the second day was a big one so I think 4 days should be early stops for the day, stay 2 days. From Birdsville it’s up to everyone what they want to do go directly down Birdsville track or I’m going to haddons corner camp there, I think last time we left Birdsville around 10am, then to Innamincka via the dig tree, stay there then onto Cameron corner 2 easy days and again spent a last night together at the pub but camping at the corner, then the wa contingent and I guess kallen and Nissa will head directly to the strezleki track then down through Quorn, the Victorians can head with us or go directly through broken hill.

@mudrunner let me know what you think please mate!
