Reading the other comments, it's good to know that I'm not the only one that prefers the Offgrid episodes over the hard-wheeling ones. I hope you'll make the Offgrid series a permanent feature of your channel. They're inspirational road trips. 👍

Agreed but Ausolo is even better. Graham solo . 🎉

I’m sick of the Glasshouse mountains. I miss the large epic missions to the cape etc with the crew and affiliates. It seems the big treks have ceased for now apart from the Off Grid series. It’s ok but but too much Graham for me.

Love the series Guys! Just an update to the story about ole mate who drove across the bridge due to the area being in flood. That bloke is my partner's uncle Stanley Cameron. He was on his way back up north to see his wife who lived in Alice. He thought what could go wrong after being told the the line was clear and no trains were coming? So he and his blue heeler Oscar (Don't think Oscar had much say in it), decided to transverse the rail line and drive across. Everything was fine until a ganger train was heading in the opposite direction! It all happened so quick and as I understand it, the train crew weren't paying particular attention to the line ahead (I mean why would you out in the middle of nowhere?), anyway Stanley tried to reverse the EJ Holden back but he ran out of time, jumped out, Oscar did the bolt never to be seen again (Smart dog I think), and the old EJ sits where it landed all these years later! And for your bait to catch yabbies? When I was on the footplate (Locomotive engineman) back in the 70/80s we used to get a weekly supply of a "sweaty" ( heavy duty cotton large cloth) and a cake of railway soap. Now that soap would without a doubt catch yabbies all day long! I believe due to the animal fat in the soap! Worked a treat!

[@JMEAUS22]

I love these episodes. The adventure is what 4wding is all about. Yeah, everyone loves seeing some insane setup that can climb vertical walls, but the wow factor wears off eventually. The adventure of seeing somewhere new never does.

[@outandaboutinthent6220]

Good show. Valuable lesson learnt. Dont try and bypass the main track. Usually the main track is somewhat hard under a few inches of slush, hence why the water is pooled. Its also generally compacted from repeated use. Driving off the main track and onto virgin is a recipe for disaster.

[@miket2304]

Love the argument on yabbies.. its an Aussie thing. All the yabbies in western Australia are introduced from the south. In 1932 fun fact.

[@markbowden7238]

This brought back memories because I have driven that road, and many others crossing that vast continent three times. On one of those occasions and because I had no responsibilities at that time and was a naiive young man, I didn't fully understand my inherent aversion to fruit fly inspections. Driving east across the Nullarbor on my own in a Falcon stationwagon, I decided to detour north off the sealed road, find the railway and follow it east then turn south and with a bit of luck avoid the roadblock. This was in 2002 I had no radio or phone just a compass and map. I didn't realize how inadequate the map was or fully understand the scale of it. What I thought was 10k was more like 100k, to the railway. After about 4 hours driving north at tickover in drive 1 over horrendous corrugations in the terrible summer heat, I realized that if the car broke down I wouldn't be able to carry enough water to walk back to the highway. There seemed to be a network of straight gravel roads with 90° junctions and another network of dusty bush tracks crossing it. I took a right down one of those, weaving madly drifting through the endless scrub until it got dark. Next day despite being high summer, felt humid. It started to rain. In my haste to get going, I drove off with the map and compass on the roof and lost them. Within a couple of hours the dust turned to slimy mud and I broached the car on a mound. I remained there for another two days and nights until the track dried out. I remember my uncle taught me how to use a wristwatch like a compass. Eventually I did make it back to the highway and took a left. A few k's down the road I got pulled up for a fruit fly inspection, massive fail but no issue because I had eaten everything already. I arrived at the first gas station with almost no fuel and almost no water. Hell yeah.

[@CliveRosemarieMurray]

Great episode, the Offgrid series just seems to be getting better. Keep up the good work. Agree with some of the other comments that there is only so much mud puddles & winching you can watch. Offgrid is where the entertainment is.

[@Snatch4WDGal]

purchase a 2kg frozen block of pilchards, keep it in the freezer and just pry off 2 or 3 pilchards to stuff into the bait bag that comes with the trap. Pilchards are great, they send out a scent trail that the yabbies can follow back to the trap.

[@martykath4427]

The fact is that when outback roads are graded there is no moisture to compact the road so the loose rutted road surface is removed off the road onto the windrow (levee bank) making it lower than the surrounding countryside. When it rains every dirt road becomes a river.

[@jasoneade1329]

I love Off Grid, so many ideas for when I go! Thanks Graham! SOAP, that's what I use for catching yabbies as they don't eat meat. The soap ends up clouding the water and for some reason, they go for that type of coverage. I've caught HEAPS of yabbies this way. And I've found that if I use meat, or dog bickies, they make the net all yuck for the drive home, but soap, well, that cleans the nets and brings in the goods!

[@rorywquin]

Brought back good memories. We did the Simpson Desert crossing back in July 2010. Everything was flooded & the park was closed while we were in it - big unexpected detours, low on fuel etc. I got bogged crossing a mudflat. I didn’t get to do big red because I only had enough diesel to limp into Birdsville. We had to load our Kimberley Kamper onto a lorry which drove onto the ferry (ferryman and lorry driver were making a killing) so that we could cross a river (don’t recall where) & then the Birdsville track was closed for about a week before we could head back south to Adelaide.

[@JamesSmullins]

Some people have released your yabbies here in Texas, the debate so far is will they be a problem or will they just be another good crawfish to eat bigger than our native ones. I saw one five years ago and didn't know it was a yabby in our local river. It's clear water so I'm going to head out and see if I can find more.

[@alisonphilp7497]

FYI : Yabbies are found in numbers in small water holes. All you need is cotton tied to a piece of any meat. You can catch them with bread too. But they hold on tight to meat.
