Log Waterhole at Winton


Left Porcupine Gorge and caught up with Jeff in the Hughenden Library, posted my internet stuff and set off the 220kms to Winton. A very hot drive with a huge headwind and even now it is still a hot wind blowing through the Long Waterhole Camps6 #361. I enquired at the Information Centre about the drive into Bladensburg National Park but no change in the distance to be covered on dirt tracks so I have given it a miss.

This place is very dry and the waterhole is almost non existent, there are cows wandering around and emus. Not likely to stay more than overnight here.             John

Wow, John, the waterhole has sure dried up since we were then last! But good for an overnighter.
