Thought I'd start a bit of a post on our proposed 2013 Trip.....
Time Frame: bit over 3wks
Distance: Approx 7300kms (This may change if time running short)
The planned Route: Brisbane - Roma - Barcaldine - Longreach - Winton - Boulia - Donohue & Plenty Hwysto Alice Springs - Chambers Pillar - Rainbow Valley - Henbury Crater - Ayers Rock - The Olgas - Kings Canyon - Palm Valley via the Finke River route & Boggy Hole - Gosses Bluff - then visiting all the Gorges on the way back into Alice Springs - Head Nth via the Stuart Hwy & visiting the Devil's Marbles - Tennant Creek - 3 Ways - Mt Isa - Cloncurry - Winton and back the same way we came......
It might seem a lot of kms but from my trip planning if u put a couple of good long distance days in first, u then only have to travel about 300>400kms driving per day.... and if it looks like we are going to run out of time, we just head back across the Plenty instead of heading up to Tennant Ck way......
Still got a few minor things to do, so getting keen to get going back out that way again..... Here's a couple of Maps of our planned Route:
