As I will be heading off around the Simpson straight afterwards, I am trying to plan how much time I will have.
Bump!

Is it too late to put our hand up for this one - recall having some input early on - but then got distracted - I'm trying to arrange for us to be there...
cheers
Simon

G'day David
Sorry but I must pull out of the 'gathering' we will now be traversing the Simpson East to West and then West to East at the time of the meet. We should be back in Birdsville round about the 31st. Hope to catch up again some time.
Happy gathering

Hi all,
May is drawing closer - March already, and May will be here before before we know it!
How do we draw together a list of who's going to be going, and from which locations?
Simon

We're planning on leaving Melbourne on the 22nd May - early. Will have 2 young boys and a friend with us - sharing the driving - hope to get there on 23rd not too late. Via Mildura and Peterborough.
So that's:
- Arch (5)
- Norto (2)
Is someone organising the Sky Trek drive - how far is that from Wilpena Pound etc?
Pls add to this list?
cheers,
Simon

Looking at the web site http://www.rawnsleypark.com.au/main/accommodation it looks fine - and it's not far from Wilpena Pound or Willow Springs - so we're happy with that.
Either Rawnsley Park or WIllow Springs - I don't mind. The vote seemed to have more for Rawnsley Park...
Are you camping, or taking one of their other accom options?
Simon
