View from the top of a hill, between Yidney Scrub and Urang Creek (we took the inland track from happy valley to Lake Mckenzie) I think this was taken from the top of my roof racks...

Great collection there ####. Where were you when you took the shots of the softer tracks?

I think from the recent storms we've had, theres a little less sand in the Champagne Pools? If you can, try and bring some footwear you can use in the water as there are a few rocks with sharp barnacles. The right side of the pools can get a bit slippery too.

It will be very interesting to see the changes since some time.

That visit, the tracks on the west, in particular, kingfisher area, everybody getting bogged, and breaking cars, getting flat trayed out, we spent hours waiting some tracks.
It was the softest sand I have ever driven in.
3rd low at 20psi on flat, I was running out if steam.
In a few spots. Never got stuck though :-)
