Hi all , Just got back from a quick trip between road closures due to rain up the Birdsville track for a ride on the Cooper ferry. Water everywhere ,flowers magnificant and the best feed of big blue claw yabbies in years Great! Cheers, Mary
Life vest for everyone even operators-Regulations? It's really just a couple of pontoons with an outboard each side. I thinks i would probably worn the vest I took if they weren't provided! it is apparently 4m deep in the middle and quite wide-too far for me to swim without something to keep me above water. Was pretty quiet only passed 1 other vehicle on the way up but while we were there a few more turned up.No wating to speak of . Just wanted to do the trip for the fun /historical reasons. loved it!
I understand that historical reasoning. Is the ferry on the Birdsville Track west of Walkers Crossing? What a year it has been. Even this country, up along the overlander highway, is the top of the Lake Eyre Basin, the head of the Channel Country catchment, according to a sign I passed today. I was very surprised the catchment is so vast. Isn't this country of ours wonderful?
