Marree to Coober Pedy (including the Oodnadatta Track)

These roads were the most challenging we have travelled and took two nights and three days to do it. Six tyres were deflated to 30 PSI and two rear car tyres to 33 PSI. The dirt roads commenced at North Blinman, to Marree, to Lake Eyre, to William Creek, to Coober Pedy. The distance was 590kms. We were pleased with the way car and van handled the demanding conditions. (The โ€œspareโ€ spare tyre on the roof rack loosened its bindings and the sliding door of the bathroom came off its runner). The only dust that seeped in was when we forgot to secure the dust cover at the base of the door ๐Ÿ˜ณ Rookie error.

Unusual sculptures along the road were constructed of metal remnants of discarded cars, machinery equipment and planes.

Stunning Lake Eyre

The water from Queensland floods had not arrived (due in another week) so there were no birds.
