  • In our latest release we are Carnarvon Cruisin'!
    This video presents our off-road adventure through The Carnarvon National Park Region located in the Central Queensland Highlands, where we take you on an epic journey of fascinating discovery!
    From the infamous and grisly tale of the Kenniff Brothers Bushrangers of Mount Moffat, to the stunning Carnarvon Great Walk through the gorge itself, with its incredible natural and indigenous history and then on to the Salvator Rosa region, with its majestic rock formations and sublime crystal clear springs and creeks that are essential sources of water for three of Australia's major river systems.
    The Carnarvon National Park region in Queensland is a must see for all of you with an interest in amazing natural geology, colonial settlement and exploration of Australia, and also incredible aboriginal art and history.
    We all throughly enjoyed our adventure through this region too, and we hope you love our video of this journey!

    Great episode. Love the history and geology. Lots Wife probably named after the Lot's Wife story from the Bible, where she turned into a pillar of salt. Lot, his wife and 2 daughters were urged by 2 angels to flea Sodom during its destruction. They were instructed not to look back but Lot's wife did and she turned into a pillar of salt. The story is found in Genesis 19: 1-38.

    So two days ago, I'm sitting, contemplating the next school holidays. Late last year Carnarvon was the go but alas, me - the driver, camp organiser, navigator etc broke my leg. So now I plan a different journey where we'll visit the gorge for a smaller walk or two (leg gets tired) and plan something else. But what? So I open UA-cam and BAM....this was the first video and it was only 30 mins since posted. Trip now planned. THANK YOU!
