For those nomads that have been to channel country, do you have any tips on places to see and go and best time of year, I'm presuming late Autumn with the rain they usually get in central Qld that time of year, how much rain would depend on exactly when to visit I suppose. Kev

Has anyone driven this route and is it very steep? We recently drove Tamworth to Armidale and struggled up the steep climb just north of Tamworth which was really scary. Didn't have any problems anywhere else on our trip including Maitland to Scone.

In breaking news, another sinkhole has reportedly opened up at North Stradbroke Island earlier today. While it may look like a nice swimming hole, Surf Lifesaving Queensland is urging people to stay away from the area (as common sense would dictate) and only swim between the flags.
