Four wheel driving

On Saturday (13-9)  we drove from Mount Surprise to Einasleigh (42km), then across to Forsayth (40km), up to Georgetown (42km) all off road driving, corrugations, water crossings, stock on road, it was exciting.  From Georgetown we drove along the Gulf Developmental Road (Savannah Way) back to Mount Surprise.  Left about 9am and arrived back about 5.30pm.


Corrugations on roads

 River crossing with and without water.

Old road in Einasleigh



New bridge and old river crossing - all the run is now gone!  imagine crossing this in the wet season




The old pub, still in use, populations in Einasleigh - about 20 if you are lucky.
