Old Telegraph Track


Only one challenge left on the Old Telegraph Track today before we head to Weipa – Palm Creek. We were expecting to have to winch this one as we had checked it out from the south side on our way to the tip plus everyone said we’d never make it. Michael drove up without a problem, then it was Graham’s turn, a bit a maneuvering at the bottom to get the trailer straight then he just drove straight up pulling the camper. Some of the spectators did decide not to attempt it though.

We fueled up at Bramwell Junction and had a burger for smoko which kept us going until dinner time then headed to Weipa for the night where we met back up with John & Lorna. It was another steamy day and Jacob & I thought we’d be there early enough to be able to go for a swim but there wasn’t enough time as we needed to call into the shops for a couple of supplies while we had the opportunity.
