Hi, I just came out of the Gammon Ranges Nat Park in the northern flinders ranges..Been there for last 1.5 wks. I am Leigh Creek approx 600 ks north of Adelaide atm. From here I am heading up (all dirt roads) to Marree which is 110 ks from here. Then driving through a pastoral station to the bottom end of Lake Eyre, then back to Marree, then heading north up the Oodnadatta track to the Northern territory border which is approx 1100 ks.
Today I activated a telstra broadband wifi device, I had bought in Adelaide as there is no optus in the outback..So now have telstra broadband internet but no mobile phone access. so pls don't bother ringin or texting me on my optus phone, its no go for a fair while yet.
Its quite a rugged remote, dry place but quite attractive place to hang out with lots of wildlife....
Hey you wouldn't believe it, I was trekkin through the bush in the Nat Park, and around the corner was this dude. He turns out to be the brother of the wildlife tv presenter, David Attenborough....His name is Stuart Attenborough and he is trekkin around the outback doing video programs on the environment for the BBC in England!!!
He told me his video of the area where i met him is on youtube, so click on the link here to see it..

Also I met 2 dudes who were bushwalking, I boiled some water for their cups of tea. They told me they were camped in another part of the Nat Park and come see them if I was going past. Well about 5 days later I drop in to their camp and they have 1 nite left and they invited me to dinner, roast lamb and veges, yummo..Then they gave me their leftover 3 chicken breast bits plus leftover potatoes,carrots, garlic and onions, yowww. So last nite i did a chicken and hokkein noodles stir fry. Not bad for an outback meal...
Will Post some pictures when i can, maybe later on...
