Birdsville Big Red, The Track The Storm, Mud & Punctures 2021 PMK3AUSTRALIAmov

Birdsville QLD.
The Town, Big Red, The Track, The Storm, The Mud & Punctures....... The Whole Adventure !

We start this trip just north of Birdsville. A short drive down from Bedourie to a expected 3 day stay in Birdsville....... It was not to be. There was a storm on it's way & if we stayed there was a chance of us getting stuck in town for longer than intended. Not a bad thing but we decided to move on asap.
So after an afternoon & sunset at Big Red we retired for the night & in the morning we moved on down the Birdsville Track to beat the coming storm.
We managed to see a few of the sights on the way to Mungerannie. Then things turned sour......
After we left Mungerannie we managed to get 2 punctures in the first 30 kms & then the storm came early......... The track turned to a skating rink.... We had no choice but to keep moving on these sections. Stopping could mean we don't get the van moving again. The track was open when we left Mungerannie...I doubt it was by the time we reached Marree
We finally arrived in Marree after dark & were glad to see the bitumen.
What a Day....... What an Adventure !
Cheers
