    Cool Flinders Trip after the big rains in 2008

    These are some pictures I dug out from our trip to the Flinders, just after the first decent rains in 4 years. The roads were like brown toothpaste and the main Blinman to Parachilna Road was closed after we went through to Parachilna.

    The goernment sent a truck and water trailer to damp the dust down that weekend, and the trailer stayed stuck in the middle of the Blinman to Parachilna Road for a week. They got the truck out with a grader but tore all the road up in the process.

    Good fun in the mud though!!

    Were north of Yunta last year when it rained, that stuff gets real greasy.

    Brought back all the memories, had no slip overs though. That is not fun if it happens to you.
