- Following my last attempt to see Kennedy Ranges I manage to pick up a couple of days work near Gascoyne Junction before getting back out there to explore this small town and the eastern side of Kennedy Ranges including the beautiful Honeycomb Gorge!

Bloody amazing! I lived and worked at the Junction in 1967 with the road maintenance gang.
Couldn't recognise where your culvert was, though.
The old grader you showed was recovered and brought in to grace the new council office,
it was driven by one Joe Carter and was powered by a camel team, I knew Joe, he had many
stories to tell. The town is unrecognisable to what it was then.
The Junction Hotel had rooms, sold beer, groceries, (limited) and was the fuel depot, it was
nothing to park out front next to a light aircraft.
It would take 12 months to complete the road maintenance circuit, heading out to Dairy Cr Station,
to Dalgety Downs, Landor then north, doing all side roads, coming back through the Kennedys back to the
Junction for Christmas, then doing the roads south of the Junction.
Mt Augustus was just a cattle station managed by one Dudley Farrer, Dudley was a
well known character of the area. Incredible what the old place has become!
Legend mate! From what I’ve read almost everything was lost in the 2010 floods, being a full rebuild for the town! The works we were on was around 40km east of town and I wish I could’ve filmed in the pub the night before but they had a lot of photos of the old town/pub showing what it was like!
Your videos of Australias outback are very good. I like the fact that you take time to view, film old relicks, buildings, history and include drone footage. Thanks!
Cheers! I’m loving do it and means a lot hearing this!
keep at it JS we're all loving it 👍
Cheers mate! 🍻🍻 I’m loving doing it as well!
Love your work Jack. BTW thanks for the stubbie holders and stickers. They arrived yesterday.
No worries mate! Cheers for the support! 🍻
Great video. The drone film was amazing
Cheers!
Amazing !
Cheers!
Another great video!! after watching your last few videos in this area.. it's now on my bucket list.. place looks amazing
Cheers mate! 🍻 It’s easily turned into one of my favourite spots that not a lot of people get to see!
oh wow ! this is cool 🛻🏜️🤙😎
how can I become an operator on a machine ?? is it direct with the plant owner ? or a hire company who supply's the labour operators ?
drone footage is Soo good ! very clear !
Cheers mate! 🍻🍻 I’ve always grown up around them and been around machinery but this was all hire gear for the road project that we were able to use to complete our parts
That’s one area I still haven’t got to
Definitely worth the trip!
Another breathtaking video. Thanks Jack 💜
Cheers! 😊
Really good video
Cheers!
Good to see you back Jack, great video and loved the bird calls at the park.Great mic you have. Also good to hear news of Sorcha, bush girl eh! Thanks mate, see you soon.
Cheers mate! 🍻🍻

Great video jack the road didn't look to bad i hope to do the same thing from jascoyne junction but with a caravan what do you think thanks Ron
Cheers mate! 🍻 No problem with a caravan! The tracks are really well maintained all year round and wouldn’t hesitate to bring a van up this way!
@@JS_Adventure thanks Jack I'm hoping to leave this Friday or Saturday at the latest
Great video mate. Got a question, did you head North via Ullawarra Rd to get to Mt Augustus or South via Gascoyne Junction? We're planning a similar trip in the future. Cheers
Cheers mate! 🍻 I went north on Ullawarra Road and had no problems at all, I believe it’s the quickest way to Mt Augustus and if your stopping in at Kennedy ranges it’s the way to go!
Thanks for that. That's exactly what I liked to hear. Cheers
Love your work…
We hope to tackle the western side of the Kennedy in 5weeks time
I’m towing a off-road camper trailor with my 200 series…you I should be ok?
Cheers! You’ll be fine with an off road camper! The trickiest part is the soft sand of the river crossing when you are towing other than that it’s all relatively easy just some parts are rocky and slow moving
@@JS_Adventure ok, thanks mate
Got any stand out spots to camp?
I’m liking Mooka Springs , and somewhere on the top edge facing East .
We are thinking of spending x3 days doing the loop….
Cheers mate…
Not of the top of my head as haven’t really camped along there, but certainly on the eastern cliffs and I believe Mooka Springs has some great shady spots right next to the springs also with mookanite rocks around he area
Another great vid looks amazing good to see at work as well 👍 can I ask what your role was in the work ? Just curious 😉
Cheers mate! 🍻 All rounder, we’re only a small family team dealing with earthworks and anything to do with concrete, not really interested in going back to a full time career and working with family allows me to come and go as I please filming/working wise while keeping some money coming in
@@JS_Adventure sounds like the perfect job mate keep up the great work
Diesel just hit $3 a litre over here😟
😢 Wow! I dread to see prices that high here, will make travelling extremely hard!
What do you do for work, labourer, operator?
Bit of everything, not interested in going back to a full time/mining career so helping out a cousin who keeps me busy with anything to do with earthworks/concrete and allows me to work when I want and film when I want
Oops jack
Hi John were is the s
Everyones gotta work, pays for your next adventure. ❤️🇦🇺🦘
Certainly does with these fuel prices! 😂 Cheers Gail! 👍
