Did anybody travelling in Tassie make it to the Devil Country Muster last weekend. Great country music and free camping for the two days. It was an excellent line up of talent, most of whom have just been appearing in Tamworth in January. Average summer temps have been 20 - 25 lately here. Ch...

I know a lot of people say kakadont but I'm looking forward to it and will find out for myself. I know it's expensive and we will also go to Litchfield but what I was wondering is: On the gps is says only maybe 2 1/2 hours from Pine Creek to Jabiru. And it says it's a sealed road. I know it will probably take bit...

Then I measured the over all ou...
