It's a great little spot! I think it's easy to skip over a bit with the likes of the Gibb River Road and El Questro so close by (I know we almost went straight through Kununurra the first time we were up there) , but its a gem of a spot to explore. Would love to get up to Wyndham one day though!

Mate sorry! That shouldn’t be happening - it should be a small pop-up that not distracting. Just so we can look into it, which device did you watch it on? TV, Phone?

No worries and thank you for watching! 😀. Yep we only ever use maxtrax for levelling and that’s all we’ve found that we need. We carry 4, and do use all 4 sometimes. I don’t think it’s worth trying to squeeze in extra levelling ramps if you’re short on space!

@@BorderlandExplorers Awesome thank you so much

Thank you and thanks so much for watching! :)

We have no weight left for any friends to come with us, put it that way! lol. We did a Pedders 3450kg GVM Upgrade which has been awesome. Our last fully loaded weigh-in was about 3400kg. That's for full-time living though - we did a year on the road. Since being home, we don't need as much gear in there for our shorter trips and have more weight to play with now.

We LOVED it in there. So peaceful, and camping under those enormous Karri trees was amazing. Can't wait to get back there some day!

The Bush Company that we run is excellent. We don't get condensation issues at all and we've been in some VERY cold weather in the Vic High Country) with all of the canvas sides zipped up. The key is leaving the condensation vent open and it's good as gold. We did a lap of Australia with a soft shell rooftop tent a few years ago and it was shocking - like dripping wet walls all the time. Definitely depends on the tent :)

Thank you so much guys, we really appreciate that! We definitely try to keep it real, AND realistic so we are glad it comes across that way. When are you back in Aus? Oodnadatta is such a good trip - you'll love it!

@@BorderlandExplorers Back in 2026 and hopefully finally doing a lap then!

We did this around late March this year (2024). The weather and temperature was amazing - definitely a good time of year for it! 😀

That’s actually a really good idea - thank you! I don’t think the inside of ladder will have any issues holding a 20kg Jerry at all - the rear canopy walls have solid reinforcement for those accessories on the back. Cheers for the idea and thanks for watching!

Thank you for watching! We’re stoked that you enjoyed them. Such a good trip 😀

That’s awesome, you’ll love the trip! We have only ever stopped at the carpark that’s RIGHT on the Oodnadatta Track - it’s literally next to the track. That’s where this footage is from. We have seen that turn off that runs to a more northern part of the Lake (looks like it runs along the Western side of the Lake in a Northbound direction) but we haven’t done it and aren’t too sure what kind of condition it’s typically it. Would be interesting to see what it looks like from there though!

@@BorderlandExplorers and it’s ok to put the drone up?

We are supposed to be heading that way too similar time but all the roads in the area just closed. We are now looking at plan b as they may not open in time. The SA government has a great website for the roads worth checking it out.

@@filthyoffroadadventures I have accommodation booked at Wilpena next weekend, I’ll get that far and play it by ear

@@toddavis8151 awesome. Enjoy your trip it’s amazing out there.

Oh man that’s such a bummer!! How did you find the condition of the track? We filmed this a couple of months ago before all that rain and it looked like it was getting quite chopped up after we left. They’re great at the Pink Roadhouse though hey 😀

Oh no, what’s caused the blow out?

@@spectrumproductions A rock flung off the back of the Camper Trailer. It was like a dust storm in side

@BorderlandExplorers We loved it. It was like a freeway from Marla to Oodnadatta. Then progressively got worse from Oodnadatta to William Creek, then William Creek to Marree

Thank you!! 😀. It’s a great spot to get drone shots. No dramas taking your off-road van around Parachilna and the Flinders either. The little firestarter is the best! We think it you every time we use it 😀

No worries and thank you so much for watching! 😀😀

Thanks for watching, we're glad you enjoyed it! :).

Thank you haha! We do our best to pronounce place names correctly (sometimes we forget to check though and have no reception to google it when we are filming). Loved it out there - beautiful part of SA!

That's so cool, what a massive compliment! Thank you - we love hearing stuff like that - it's very humbling, Thanks so much for watching and we hope the fam enjoyed it :)

Thank you so much mate, that means alot to us! :)

No worries and thank you for watching! Not dumb at all, I think we forgot to say when we were there. This was around April 2024. Would definitely recommend that time of year - perfect temperature (cool at night but not TOO cold) and beautiful days

😂😂 nothing yet. Surely soon though!

Thanks so much guys! Such a nice compliment honestly. It's always our goal to do these epic spots justice if we can :) Your channel looks great too - just subscribed 👍

@@BorderlandExplorers we got to do some of that area last year but we are heading that way again next month including the Flinders, can't wait.

Thank you! :) The Gibb River Road was such a good time - really glad you liked the videos

So sorry for such a slow reply! Thanks for watching and we're glad you enjoyed it! The DMAX sits at about 230cm high (not including the gas bottle or radio antenna) :)

​@@BorderlandExplorers Hi there ! Thanks so much for the response! I'm just trying to figure out if such rig would fit into my garage, or not ? lol. Does that measurement include the roof top tent ? ( I thoroughly appreciate you taking the time to come back to me, the only way I have of finding this information out is to ask someone who has such a set up ) Aside , great channel. Love all the videos! Watching this kind of vid really inspires a motivates me also to do Overlanding. Great work !! Take care Rich

Now THATS an idea! Imagine if they’d all just drop off you the second they landed on you. We’d buy them! 😂. The crow sounds hilarious. Sounds like you did some awesome trips - I know we’ve learnt so much about not on my our country through the process, but about ourselves as well. Thanks for watching - we’re glad you enjoyed it! 😀

Wow, what an awesome trip! We love all of WA, but particularly the Northern end - some beautiful spots up there. Glad to hear your setup is treating you well - a 2.5tonne van would be a nice size to have 😀

Thank you so much! 😀

Thanks fammm!!!! yeah they were pretty crazy by the end haha Very proud of our patches - its a bit of an addiction now :p

Thanks so much for checking this one out! Sounds like your oodnadatta adventure was just as good as ours :) We will definitely have fly nets next time...

Thanks so much :)

We were there around March/ April and found the weather to be really nice. Cooler at night, but not ridiculously cold. And the days were a perfect temperature. We were lucky to have no rain too 😀

@@BorderlandExplorers That sounds absolutely perfect! So great you are able to record all these great times and memories, now they're all immortalized! :D thanks ill be aiming for that next year too :D

Thanks for watching :) The Flinders are beautiful hey - hope you found some epic camping spots there!

@@BorderlandExplorers Yes we stayed at Wilpena, Rawnsley Station and Mount Little Station and did some long drives through the ranges from there. Nice up there.

Thanks so much! :) next one is coming very soon - how good is the Oodnadatta!!

Thank you :) We really appreciate you taking the time to watch! Definitely try our best to do these places justice

Thank you!! <3 <3
