- In this video being “Part One” of the River Murray flooding in November 2022, we start our drive from Morgan on the Murray South Australia to travel along the Murray River to look at the flooding which is currently increasing as the weeks progress. It is still approximately four weeks before the current predictions will see the flooding peak at it’s highest level for many years.
From Morgan we travel the river system up to Renmark where we spend the night before proceeding the following day which will be show in “Part Two” of this series.

Thanks so much for your presentation…loved it!
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you.
Excellent...Thank you both.
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks, great update on the floods .
Thanks for watching 👍Part Two will be up on the channel Saturday morning coming👌
Great filming, the drone shots certainly give a good idea of just how much water there is. I was in Swan Hill last week and the Murray is certainly moving quickly, its at the top of the banks there, so they will be nervous. I think the before and after shots of the locks are the best way of showing how much its come up. Looking forward to part 2. Hoping everyone is keeping safe. Thankfully the Avoca went down before we were impacted. Cheers Cheryl 🙂
Thank you, yes the drone really shows what is happening.👍
Good well balanced comments supported by a great video - unlike a lot of the sensationalism coming from the media.
Well done, can't wait for video #2 - & maybe something at the floods peak??
Glad you enjoyed it! We intend on filming the area this coming Sunday that is between Blanchtown and Mannum to show what is happening there. When it does peak we will definitely go back and capture the areas that highlight the full flooding effect, well that is our intention at the moment, stay tuned.
Great comparison with current to March this year, Thanks for sharing your trips Mick and Sally, they are a pleasure to watch
Glad you like them, thank you.
Thankyou!
You're welcome!
Thanks Mick and sally awesome to see if you get down to Wellington let us know and you can stay here 👍
We will, thank you.
Awesome video mate. Great drone footage, enjoy :)
Thank you, glad you liked it.👍
Some pretty nice looking sharks in the video. The owners homes must be master pieces.
Yes there are some mansions amongst the shacks, that is for sure.
thanks so much for showing us the floods, great footage and love seeing the locks
Part two going up on my channel tomorrow morning. We are heading off this coming Sunday to film between Blanchtown and Mannum so hopefully we will capture some good highlights while out.
Thank you for sharing your awesome footage of the flooding so far through the Riverland. I'm a Riverlander born & raised in Waikerie. Hope you have some footage of Waikerie in part 2?! I live in Adelaide now, still have family in Waikerie. I also lived in Berri & Renmark for a while when my children were younger.
As well like to mention to you I see you went to the Old Overland Corner, inside they have a "Home Made Cabinet" full of home made knives & Oyster shucker's, Bottle openers etc. all made from old railway line nails. This is all made by my 2nd Cousin Tomas Hansen, his own business called Bushy's Projects, he's a Blacksmith & he was a local to the Riverland now living in Encounter Bay with his British wife & their little daughter. If you seen them and maybe bought something? Thank you if not that's Ok, maybe next time?? I will put in a link to his website for you if your interested share with family & friends.

Thank you for the great comments. We have eaten meals at the Overland Hotel many years ago and possibly would have seen the Cabinet then but can't recall now. It is a top spot, real country about it. I will have a look at the link you sent, thanks.
It was our intention to film Waikerie while there but it was just too windy to put up the drone. Lets hope when we go back again as the water comes down, we can get a better day and capture some film then.👍
Loved the update on the Murray river Mick. Great filming and drone footage. Much appreciated! Keep them coming!
Thanks 👍The next one will be up for watching this coming Saturday morning.
Well done.
Thank you, glad you liked it.
Thanks Mick and Sally for another great video. We really like visiting Renmark and it is certainly different at the moment. Like you said, you can't stop the water. Travel Safe and Enjoy 👍🏼🇦🇺.
Thank you, glad you liked the video. Part two will be up on the channel this coming Saturday morning. Yes Renmark and the surrounding areas certainly is a certainly pretty part of South Australia.
Thank for the great coverage Mike far better than main stream media, that drone footage was excellent from NZ.
Thank you, glad you liked it. Part two will be on our channel this coming Saturday morning, there is a lot of drone and water shots in that one.
Great video 👍
Thank you, glad you liked it👍
Thanks for your video on the river floods. Nicely done and explained

Thanks for watching!
Again a great record of the events unfolding. Looking forwards to the next part too.
Thanks Jill, next installment will be up on the channel this coming Saturday. Hopefully we are going to do the Blanchtown to Mannum run this coming Sunday.
Fantastic footage Mick, such an eye opener.
Thank you, there is a lot of water around.👍
New sub....thank you so much for your most informative content. I m a permanent caravanner and have been for 6 years now along with my son who is in his own separate camper van, we have been to most places in the Riverland that you have depicted in this video, we have also done the Mallee and Limestone Coast and the Outback, love traveling and especially freecamping as we are self contained and set up for off grid...will look forward to more of your great videos :)
Welcome aboard, glad you like the video. Free camping is such a great way to travel, we also love it very much.
Hi Mick we were in the river bend caravan park a few weeks ago and people were saying we will be right that has changed now i wish them all the best lovely people at river bend caravan park would go back in a heartbeat,stay safe might see you on the road
Interesting times for people along the river at the moment. To know and to see what is coming for them must be heart breaking knowing that there is no way of stopping it all from occurring. We can all only hope that everyone comes out on the other side a little stronger from it all.
Thanks for posting. Very interesting to see.
Thank you for watching, should get more interesting in a few weeks time when it peaks.👍
I do believe this is the earth's way of cleaning it's self, the Murray will be better then ever after this I do believe
Most definitely, my thoughts as well
thanks for sharing
You are welcome👍
As usual a great video Mick
Glad you enjoyed it
Great video Mike Love the drone footage
More to come!
Thanks for the video I really appreciated it. Interesting the flow meter at Lock 3 shows 80GL/Day, the current forecast is for at least 175GL/Day peaking in mid Dec. Hope that flow meter is wrong otherwise there’s a stack more water coming!
You are right about the flow metre and what is still to come. Talking to people up the river we got different reports but most were expecting a lot more yet to come. One of our friends at Waikerie told us that he was of the understanding that it could get just below the 1956 flood level, lets all hope he is wrong.
Yeah i got that storm in Berri. We lost Power. I have a freezer full of Crisco but we got the solar connected to it and it was fine. power was out for 8+ hours some people didn't get power till the following day. Went to the Mallee Fowl for dinner they run on a generator.
Sounds like you were well and truly prepared for it.👍
Just found your channel, new sub, great video nice to see the comparison of before and now. Will be interested in a few weeks how high it goes. The Murray mouth needs a flood to open up
Thanks for watching, glad you liked it. /we are off to the mouth in a weeks time so see what is happening down that way. It is predicted it will be January before the water reaches down that far at this stage.
Hey Mate, Great video. One thing you could do to improve your videos is to add chapters. By doing this people can see what certain parts of the video show and if people wish to see specific parts of the videos they can. keep up the great work ;)
Thanks for watching and also for the suggestion about chapters. I just had a look at inserting chapters and found that it will not go onto TH-cam with chapters, perhaps I have more to learn in regards to doing that with TH-cam. At present I can only work out with my software Prog how to insert chapters when creating a DVD, not when creating TH-cam videos.
i remember when lake bonny dried up , i didnt realize it had recovered like that , iy was nice to see
The river system will benefit in a big way from this flood. The area should look great for some time to come.👍
Wow, So much water. I must make time and get up there for a look. Another great video. How's the door mat holding up
Mats are going good thanks, you did a great job with them👍
Wow, spent a few years in my late teens working with the old man on his vineyard in Bamera, but lived in Renmark, used to go skiing so much along that stretch of water from the Renmark Caravan Park. I've never seen it that high before and I guess with the holiday season approaching fast, Houseboat holidays, which were probably booked last year have probably been cancelled, I guess. It's probably the seasons where they get majority of their bookings.
The houseboat hiring industry I believe is now shutdown until this flood event is all over as there is too much rubbish and logs floating in the water let alone the water speed as it heads down stream. Interesting times ahead for some of us who haven't seen a flood of this magnitude before and the older people no doubt will recall some of the other floods that have occurred in the river history.
Small world that was me at the boat ramp at Morgan in March boat was tied up at the end
Yes it is a small world, always someone about for whatever reason. Merry Christmas to you and the family.
Merry xmas to your family stay safe
How high is predicted high water level going to be?
The current flow is 80-100 Gig a day and it is expected to flow at a possible 150-160 gig a day but it is changing all of the time.
To answer your question, it depends on location.
Every few days the flow on to SA gets adjusted. Sad to think youd have more hope in getting an answer to how long is a piece of string.
@@dryroo it must be a very hard thing to predict.
It’s a shame all this water is going out to sea poor management by governments. But sadly this is the nature of government.
I think there would be too much water this time to harvest no matter what anyone was to do about it. As you say though, it is a shame to see it all go into the sea.
Seen Donald Campbell and the Bluebird on Lake Bonney, 1964
Interesting to hear, I would not have thought the lake would have been long enough for him to run on.
@@justcruisinwithmicksally837 Well he didn't break any records but hell it sounded good . I sent you a photo on Apr 18, 2022, in your Facebook Messenger
@@dougtilley5977 Yes you did👌
