SLRV Motorhome Expedition Vehicle. Occasionally we come across a SLRV Motorhome in our travels. SLRV Motorhomes started making their expedition vehicle packages in the mid 2000’s and they simply looked like a caravan on the back of a truck, something any backyard...
EVA Expedition Vehicle. EVA vehicles have been around since 2013. We have only encountered a couple of these vehicles in our travels. The company doesn't have a typical vehicle like other manufacturers and seem to switch bases as clients need it. From memory the...
1 - 4 July 2021 We just loved Epenarra Station and with all the craziness going on in Australia it has been a welcome escape just sitting here without a care. Daily walks and rest without other people. Nice! It's also interesting to see the station staff get on with...

Photographs from Finke Desert Race 2021 We have been itching to get back to the Finke Desert Race since doing it in 2016. 5 years later we made it. Woo hoo! The race is a crazy dash over 2 days for bikes, cars, buggies and quad bikes through desert country from Alice...
1 June 2021 Camped near Kulgera, the weather has been overcast. This has tested our new battery system, and we currently used more than 50% of our 300ah capacity, something we would have never previously entertained. Last night we had a few drips of rain and it was...
