    Great episode guys. That storm brewing in the sky looked amazing. Oh, by the way, I think you made the right decision.

      Thanks heaps Jase. Yeah, it was a pearler that storm. Lucky it skirted us, hearing how bad the one at Mt. Barnett Station was enough for me. 😂
      Yeah, I appreciate that - you always get struck by FOMO when it comes to these sorts of things, but at the end of the day, we did what felt right, even though it hurt.

    Maaaate…. That was epic! 🙌🏾 Bugger about not going to Mitchell Falls but to be honest, that road was rough as guts! We didn’t take the van in, just drove in for the day!🤙🏽

      Cheers brother. 🙏 Yeah, and if we went up there and it was dribbling across, we would have been shattered. Have seen a few crew drag vans up there, but just couldn't justify it. The consolation prize was pretty flippin' good Though!

      Oh man, I would love to see the Gibb just after the wet, but everytime we've been we've run late in the dry season and missed all the big water. Spewing as it's absolutely stunning when all the gorges are full and waterfalls are pumping!
      Still loved it when we've been and definitely keen for a trip back!

    Mate, we did 9 weeks up that way a couple of years ago and the ONLY place I used 4wd LOW was the crossing at Mount Barnett - take your wins 😀

      That would have been awesome! 9 weeks. 🙌 Yeah, I hear ya though. You want a bit of adventure. . .but not a car floating down the river, or being hopelessly bogged with the van in red mud. No bueno. 😂

    Good to see you back on TH-cam again it’s been a while ? Still using the R5

      Thankyou! Yeah brother, used the R5 on this but have since upgraded the RED to the new V-Raptor XL which is a vista vision sensor. Pretty in love with that TBH. 😜
