@@Ragsytheriffer no probably won't go quite that far up to the gulf because I don't have a 4x4 but I have been near there ,porcupine gorge and up to Port Douglas, yeah Cape York would be an interesting trip

nice work, mine was not that kind of trip , I wanted to see stuff, photograph birds and make a video so in no rush, never went over 90 kph .

@@Ragsytheriffer I made many trips when the road north was a 3km wide bull dust and boggy holed mud slide, yes, both on the same day. All our luggage was double taped and all but the drivers window was taped up to keep out the dust - that God for Airconditioners. We used to do that with 2 drivers, Alice to Adelaide in 24hrs. It was hard on the body, but shocking on the vehicle.

@@davidstokes8441 a real adventure back then ...we are all a bit soft now :)
