I like to stick to the back roads when I can, you get to see so much more, including farm machinery







I felt like I could drive straight under given the need






Love a country road, this area is all farmers and scrub




I took an interesting turnoff without knowing where I was going, saw a sign warning of steep, winding roads next 68Ks and figured I had to check it out, glad I did




Cute little things - pretty faced wallaby





If the last road was all fields this one was all cliff edges and water crossings, Callide creek here as it enters the Lake/Dam






Surprise power station, I had no idea this was here




Found a lookout, there are 2 power stations, a dam and a coal mine all right next to each other









Back down by lakes edge, you cannot camp here but you can bring your caravan and boat...









Overflow from the dam, very clean water and an easy crossing

After this it was back on the highway for a dash towards the camp spot 300Ks away, just made it before dark
