when I was there, there was water. with tent, bond fire, billy, looking at the Milky Way. Most beautiful sight I have ever seen. The bareness, vastness, unforgiving nature command your respect in silent. So beautiful yet so deadly.

You really can’t beat the desolation of the desert outback. There’s something other worldly about the place, just you, the sky and the wind. It’s probably my favourite location in Australia.

Same, Ive traveled solo for many visits to the outback, its something of an other worldly experience.

Such a beautiful video, you are a brave young man,your folks must be very proud of you.Thanks

Captured everything about the area we loved and admired, echoing our exact thoughts. Still one of my favourite campsites to date

Great trip! The blue of the sky in the opening scene is awesome!

Thanks Brett. Your efforts are appreciated and some good advice thrown in there as well.

Fantastic work mate, thank you so much for sharing your journeys with us.

Thanks Brett, good to see you travelling again.

Magical sunset in your adventure.

i love how the sunset llooked it was beautiful

Hi Brett - good to see on your way with your Landy again. Nice trip.

Awesome trip! Really cool and well edited video. Thumbs up 👍 mate!

Amazing/weird landscape. 👍🏻

Thanks for another fantastic video, I appreciate your efforts and I love that you do it in a Landrover

Another great vid Brett, I admire what you're doing.

Awesome trip.. You are really brave!

Great stuff Brett!

What an interesting place

Another great Vid. Lake Eyre is a sensational and unique place to visit. A flight (from William Creek) over the lake was a great highlight for us. Steve

Would have love to have taken a flight. Perhaps on a future trip when its' full.

Nicely made & interesting travelogue. 1.15 - That's why the Aussies invented cork hats. That road at the beginning for 40 miles looked pretty tuff on the suspension =

Fantastic video 👍

Great video on Lake Eyre. I used to work up in that region for a few years and the best $5 I spent was on a fly net!. I know the flies all to well when trying to make something to eat.. A vast expanse but spectacular nonetheless.

I can remember a program on that happening shown here in the uk. It was a ray mears program about remote travel. He rented a 110 and he showed all the extra kit he has to by because the rental company didn’t supply them. I can remember it because they tied to dig there stuck car out with plastic plates because it’s all they had. They got stuck by a small shelter there was a rain butt there with over 125 litres of water in it. They had lots of water in the car as well they had enough water for a good while. Her boots melted in the sun so she set off walking in her partners boots. There was some mix up with the visitors log at the hotel so no one knew they were out there. It only took the a police officer 10 minutes to get the car unstuck as he lowered the tyre pressure to a pressure something with experience knows to do. It’s a reminder to everyone to stay safe when your out and about.

Ade Larsen you right I found the episode a few days later on dvd, I think he was in the 110 in some sort of desert talking about a downed aircraft and how the crew licked condensation off metal oil drums. I honestly can’t imagine what down under must be like in summer I get ratty and restless when we get our 3 days of 25 degree sun a year. I really would like to see the horizontal falls, but just don’t think I could cope with the heat.

Australia is full of European people. No one dies in summer. It's a little warm in Jan and Feb but all year the weather is good. The horizontal falls were made famous by Malcolm Douglas who is a pioneer like Ray Mears, Les Hiddins, Ted Egan and that guy who paints pictures who lives in Broken Hill.

Excellent vid! I was surprised at the moisture beneath the salt, is the water table high there?

@RoamingTheOutback

Lake Eyre is the lowest point in Australia, so the water table probably isn't too far below.

The constant flies would drive me insane. Lol

Yeah, I've seen that documentary also. So desolate out there. At least you've got radio's too call for help. Yep, we have corrugated dirt roads in Wyoming, where I live. Nasty things when your on two wheels

You should have a bicycle or a quad bike to venture out to these uncharted territories. But be safe distance from your base.

It's too dangerous for me to travel solo towing a trailer. If I get it stuck, jackknifed down a track or come to a dead end and can't reverse out I'm stuffed. I prefer to keep my truck minimal so I can enjoy the bush and not take everything with me. Working on a new video now to show some of my future ideas for my truck though, so stay tuned.

I'd say the landscape would be more like walking on mars.

Please get your facts straight. I cant stand people like you who think they know everything. You said lake Eyre has only filled 3 times the last 150 years. I am 65 years old and i know that lake Eyre has filled at least 3 times. Why should we patreon you show if you talk crap.
