PAYNES FIND - WESTERN AUSTRALIA pt 2

Paynes Find is located 430km NE of Perth in Western Australia's outback.
It's hot, dry and bloody wonderful. The area is renowned for its wildflowers during the Spring time. Jump onboard and join me camping as we explore what most would consider to be 'no where'.

I must admit i love those out of the way places

[@eltski2619]

Great video, you really inspire a different approach to viewing our beautiful state and a new view to camping. Thanks and keep them coming.

[@Longjohn094]

Playing with our big WA eagles is a dangerous game... They are the great whites of the sky! I’ve lost a few drones to them as I’m lucky enough to survey and map a lot of areas across the state. The trick is to always stay above them, as they use thermals and hot winds to climb. If the eagles manage to get above your drone your chances of surviving are slim, as they will dive bomb you from above and guaranteed there’s always more than one!! Magical animals, awesome to watch. Love your vids man, amazing content, keep it up brother 🤙🏻

[@emuisland5821]

Thanks mate. I’ll be looking at getting away from the coast for a change soon. Cheers for the inspiration 🤙

[@cdbeen123]

nice one mate, inspiring stuff. Ripper Bluey too !!

[@brettkuhnold216]

That's what I love about your videos. You're not hammering the like and subscribe buttons. Keep up the same, KISS method, very enjoyable. Great to see some amazing WA scenery.

[@paulczernotowycz2305]

Soo calming to watch, bravo mate!

[@phillippayne8170]

Brilliant mate always wanted to go there

[@lachland1]

Getting better every vid 👌

[@elwoodhewitt]

Thanks for the interesting video and info on the area, plus we haven't seen rained on outback yet so that was a new look for us. Love the dogs antics and the isolation sites. We try and camp the same way up here but it is much harder to do. Cheers and be safe.

[@mellows1970]

great vid mate..my old man use to love camping out there.

[@shaenj]

I used to do this. Go bush somewhere in WA or NT. Often alone....the best time...or the wife and kids. Then the kids got grown and the wife left. I bought a truck with a box on the back which I converted to a one man home. That was the best time of all. I wanted for nothing and travelled slowly stopping anywhere at all when that interested me, or just for a feed and a nap. Paynes Find was a place to buy my needs quite often. I got interested in overseas travel later and still do when possible. Life is good when you live it in your own way.

[@hutchinsonsadventures4678]

great trip buddy

[@letitflow3462]

Love this area :) I would also recommend the Ninghan Station (Shire of Yalgoo) lots to explore its located aprox 380 km north east of Perth, along the Great Northern Highway. See you on the road!

[@jonesy2418]

Absolutely awesome footage again. Recently seen you heading South between Northampton and Geraldton. That troopie sticks out like a dunny in a "desert"

[@MrAussie44]

Cool vlog mate.. Have to say that Eagle came in and smashed it hard,, he or she was looking out for the partner...

[@emu4wdadventures631]

Awesome vid. Thanks. Steve 🇦🇺

[@tamtam19454]

Everytime a drone goes down, an angel sheds a tear. Great video!

[@steveridout6614]

Thanks for the great videos , serene at peaceful. Planning when borders open to take off myself with my trusty friend in tow as well. I watch your videos to keep my vision going! Cheers and see you on the road one day!

[@travelling_two]

One of your best yet Salty!!

[@niccogiant]

That eagle footage is just amazing!

[@ollie620]

Rain in the aussie outback, absolutely love watching it

[@neilwatson4152]

Love your unique style,bud Keep it real....

[@overlandphotography]

ahhhh... the serenity. Great vid, thanks for sharing.

[@fredwilkinson5059]

very good Salty,great to find a channel that takes its time to enjoy somewhere not just race through shouting.5star

[@adamarnold3154]

Salty, that intro and music was next level. Attention grabber for sure. Great episode, thanks again 👍🏻

[@noelwhittle7922]

Paynes Find, Cue, Yalgoo, they are all within a days drive of Perth, and provide a real outback & historical experience. Tip for those who are hesitant: stay at the Station Stays in the region, Mellenbye Station in the Yalgoo, Nallan Station near Cue. The Wool Wagon Pathway, the historical mining sites, lots to see. And the serenity, stop your car and be part of the scenery. Enjoy. Oh, and great video. cheers..

[@John-kl3ue]

Noel Whittle ......Kirkialocka ..Nalbarra ...Narndee ...all good Station Stays ..

Bad luck about the drone mate, but an awesome video. Cheers Steve

[@jemty9564]

mate feeling refreshed after watching you enjoy the solitude and the elements.......great mans best friend you got there buddy....kinda funny to lose a drone like that but what a great bit of footage, worth the sacrifice.....cheers from two west aussies stuck in Saudi Arabia

[@patagoniaagreste]

Muy bueno 💯👏👏👏

[@waynowayno7645]

Thanks for showing us a great part of the country. Was good to see it in the two seasons. I get the isolation, its just a pity not everyone can see it. Keep up the vid work Salty living the dream. Cheers

[@timwheel8466]

Great stuff mate. I go out that way a fair bit by myself for the peace and tranquility just as you have done. There's not much out there but it has so much to offer.....👍

[@ryanorchard]

Nice trip. I can vouch for the cold nights up that way. Minus 3 near sandstone last week. Ice on the swag. Warm days still. Hopefully you have the dji care pack.

[@ManSingh-hu8ux]

Awesome vid and awesome WE tent👍

[@flatwaterflatlander5937]

That intro was a work of art mate.

[@Workmate_outdoors]

Great video. Never seen anything like that with all that rain. Sorry to hear about the drone. Looking forward to your next adventure

[@John-kl3ue]

I’m In Mount Magnet ..nothing like getting nice rain when it’s so dry

[@tonyi7735]

Nice vids Salty, did you get to the top of Mt Singleton? That area is my favourite for an easy getaway from Perth.

[@LandTourier]

Great trip mate.🇦🇺👍🏻 cheers Salty🍻

[@impunitythebagpuss]

Three dog night with only one dog! No wonder your toes are froze! Lol

Great trip mate - now on my bucket list.

Fantastic video mate !!! Just needed to know about ya chicken dish and recipe🍗? Great photography and content 😀 Cheers mate! 🍻

Mint vid mate. Defiently on the list of places to visit

[@boydauspeditions]

Another great vid, thank you, sorry about the drone but the footage was brilliant cheers

[@michaelnugara1]

Sorry about the drone, but the footage was amazing

[@robdotcom71]

That was amazing to see all that water in the dry lake you had camped in only a day or so before.... shame about the drone. Sending my thoughts and prayers..... will it buff out perhaps?

[@SaltyDavenport]

Haha beyond a buffing but i've managed to get a replacement under a care package.

[@robdotcom71]

@@SaltyDavenport That's great news you got a replacement... :)

[@wendylaxton3777]

Hi Salty my partner and I totally love your podcasts. We would love to know where did you buy your door armrest organiser from ? We have searched on the net and can’t find one. Thank you. Wendy 😊

[@mauricevandraanen4286]

Fancy about some drissel or rain, and expecting you might got stuck with your vehicle in some bloody mudpool when trying to run to some bitumes road in a hurry....

[@maverick0185]

Once again mate, top notch. I need to start getting out and exploring qld solo.

[@NormanSurgeon]

...At the breakaways ...15:50...those are swallow's mud nests, ...not wasps! And as I commented in your Pt 1 video, always be aware that there is extensive baiting and trapping of wild dogs throughout that area. If you love your pet, leave them at home, strychnine poisoning is the most hideously painful way in which an animal can die...!

[@SaltyDavenport]

Thanks Cobba. If you watch the rest of my videos you will find I discuss this topic thoroughly. As with most of my viewers, we are very aware with the risk of travelling with a dogs, the choice to bring him with me everywhere is one I take responsibility for. Thanks for your concern.

[@stealth616x]

Can someone please tell me the name and artist of that intro song????????

[@rogerkleemann1691]

Eagles and drones don't mix... just like eagles and gliders off the Stirling Ranges. Cheers.

[@SaltyDavenport]

I can imagine being in a glider would not be that fun when there is an eagle or two hanging around.

[@rogerkleemann1691]

Salty, have you been out from Laverton? Some great break away country. Down south there's some magic coastal and river places which are choice beyond words. Again, thanks for the top stuff you're doing.

[@Davi.b]

Apparently partner fyne is gpa detecting country, free camp

[@Andrew-1974]

What make and model of drone do you use mate?

[@Staticmaggot89]

Broooooo. Wedgies are always in pairs. That sucks so much. Awesome little adventure though!

[@SaltyDavenport]

I know I know, I did have a good look for the 2nd before flight but I think it was already way up in a thermal.

[@Staticmaggot89]

Yeah man. Im always surprised how far up they get. Atleast you got sweet shots of it as its mate was flying around. Did you find any talon marks ect?

[@frederikhackenberg8396]

Worth sacrificing a drone for these images :)

[@danw4211]

Do you need a 4x4 to go out this way? I have a 2wd Hilux ute, be okay or a risk of getting bogged and stranded?

[@person.X.]

I have been out there and all over the Murchison and Goldfields for years prospecting in my battered old Falcon ute :) Also driven the Great Central Road from Laverton to Alice Springs and then on to Boulia and beyond - thousands of kms of unsealed roads. I cannot drive to the top of hills as easily and have to be careful with sandy and wet areas but other than that no worries. I have proper A/T tires on it and it takes a bit of a hammering from stone chips. The roads in most of these areas are in good condition and generally well maintained by the shires. A 4x4 is better but the obsession with tricked out 4x4s costing tens of thousands of $$$ has more to do with consumerism than actual necessity.

[@theozBandit]

2wd Toyota Hilux is fine... just buy a decent air compressor from one of 4wd shops and a gauge and when gets boggy let all tyres down to the 16-12 psi...if gets real boggy, let them all down more to 8psi or lower and drive slow...when gets harder, pump tyres up more...

[@Andrew-1974]

Bugger!! I just asked a question about the drone before I watched the video. Sorry dude!!
