Hit the road early before 9.30 - easy run into Mount Isa passing vast cattle stations accompanied by the various hawks and eagles. It’s feeling less remote here with sightings of helicopters servicing the many mines and lots of caravanners migrating north.
George Fisher mine welcomed us into MI. Civilisation 😬
Power lines all around us
Fuelled up & drove straight out to Cloncurry where the Flying Doctor service began - a neat and small Qld town with wide streets and Queenslander houses - a very nice feel to it, and then we drove out ...
Leaving the Overlander Way for the Matilda Highway to Walkabout Creek Hotel - 100kms till we get the Crocodile Dundee experience!
It’s a shared highway with mostly caravanners and road trains of mostly 4 trailers long. The signs tell us they are 53.5 meters long 😳
