    I drove from Sydney to Broome and back in 2003. Being from the city, one thing I'll never forget is stopping in the middle of nowhere, turning the engine off and - on a hot, still day - hearing absolutely nothing. No wind, no birdcall. Nothing. The first time it happened it felt like it was actually hurting my ears/tiny brain, because it was like being in a vacuum, it didn't make sense. So much wide open space around you but no noise to process. It felt amazing.

    Some beautiful scenery in this one guys.
    A little fact about the boab trees: During bad droughts when the farmers were desperate, they use to chop these trees down to help keep livestock alive. Sadly, as there have been many bad droughts, there are far fewer boabs than there use to be. I don't know about now, though. I think there would probably be big penalties if a farmer chopped one of these down. They are a protected species in Northern Territory.

    I remember driving from Alice to Kings Canyon and the huge wedge-tail eagle flew just above our windscreen it was both frightening and awe-inspiring. Never seen anything so beautiful and majestic. I had forgotten about it until you mentioned seeing the same beautiful birds. Thank you for taking me to places that I may never be able to go to.

    I am so glad you show the drone views overhead to demonstrate how isolated you can be in outback areas. Ahead and on either side of the road there and many many miles with no buildings no shops, no fuel depots so very far in the distance from anywhere to look, all around you.'
    Plus the reason why WATER (and lots of it) should be carried on a vehicle traversing the outback.
    Plus you do understand to make sure IF your vehicle breaks down you DO stay with your vehicle and previous to that you DO advise your travel direction just in case you fail to arrive at your next destination.
    You are fantastic that you understand so many strategies to keep you safe and your vehicle in good order.
    That may be CAMEL dung rather than cow dung if you are in a particular area.

      I think a lot of people (understandably) miss that we grew up in Arizona. It has a very comparable climate to Outback Australia, and is actually harsher in some respects. So yea we understand these things quite well.

      @@OnePackWanderers. Please accept some Aussie advice and purchase some Aussie bush boots - rather than wearing sandals and thongs. The chance of being bitten by bull ants, scorpions and snakes is high when you’re off the beaten track and highly problematic if far from medical care. Stay safe. Cheers

    BTW without the flood, you wouldn't have a 4WD. Look at all the stuff you've seen that you wouldn't see with Blueberry. Like Wolfe Creek, possibly a couple of the gorges, and other stuff coming up. Hope you take a detour to Kings Canyon this time, plus Oodnadatta & William Creek. Maybe the Flinders Ranges if budget allows. Or (see where our 2 biggest rivers meet at Wentworth), then Mildura down the Silo Run to Melbourne.

    This was one of my favourite videos you've made - the way you recorded the crater was magical. What a treat to see those eagles! We saw one last year in Tasmania - very similar, we disturbed it eating road kill - and it was magnificent to watch fly off - like it was in slow motion - the wing span was huge! Earlier this year we saw some flying above when we were exploring the historic cemetery in Millicent, SA. They were superb! Flying so high - and calling out to each other. Tia, I DID see Wolf Creek when it first came out - and I absolutely do NOT recommend it to you! It was too awful and too violent. Ugggh.

    WOW Wilson crater, I haven't got there yet, But I know that outback well. So nice AND quiet. It does make me happy Cherveyo that you can smell, hear and really appreciate the outback the way you do. Do many people when they experience the outback don't take that part into their appreciation of it. For them it's more about the places, the watering holes, the gorges, the colours. But the land has a complete unique feel and character as you say, which it why Aborigines have such a oneness with the land I think. I really appreciate that you guys are enjoying it so much. You are going to love the Kimberly so much too.
    Oh, you'll probably notice a drop in mpg with the lower tyre pressures, but I'm sure you know that already. Stay safe.

    The eagle you’re referring to is the wedge tailed eagle native to Australia. Although it’s not the largest (ever so slightly smaller than a bald), they hold the record for the largest wingspan for an eagle recorded and verified at a good 2.84m wingspan.

    Wolfe Creek Crater is surprisingly beautiful. I went there in a Ford Falcon wagon about 25 years ago. It was peak dry season at the time and the lake in the middle was dry. But that allowed us to walk across the crater across the bottom, going straight across the middle of the lake. We also stopped and walked around the abandoned cattle station buildings that you did. This video brought back a lot of memories for me.

    Lived in the APY Homelands in NW SA in 80/81. I remember driving away from the community and standing alone in the bush. The only sound was the stirring of the desert oaks ruffled by a breeze that had passed over hundreds of km from the West. Cheveyo is spot on about the smell of the bush "beyond the fences" I miss those times out there. Thanks for letting people experience our beautiful country vicariously.
