Love them all Hans. You've done well. Those colours are extraordinary. #4 is a silly place to park your truck

Excellent images Hans. It's fun getting back from the ridge in the dark isn't it? Lucky we had our Hema GPS at the time.

I managed without HiTech this time but remember going out with a group of fellows on motorbikes many years ago. One of them had shares in a mine how on earth we found it and got back to civilisation has me beat. He was telling me the census figures showed that there were three hundred peple living at the ridge. At the time the milkman sold 1200 bottles of milk each day. They sure liked their milk!

The last thing you want to do up there is stumble onto someones claim in the dark, ask questions later. Coober Pedy is the same, census figures do not add up.

Liked the visit to Coober Pedy as well. Sure is different out in the bush.
