The Caroline Grosmueller memorial on the road to Lake
Eyre is a tragic reminder of just how harsh this country can be. Caroline
and her partner's car got stuck at the lake in December '98 and she tried
to walk out to get help but perished in the attempt.
An unforgiving climate in a picturesque spot reminds us to
take care and be prepared when travelling thru the outback.
Lake Eyre is the lowest point in Australia at 12 metres below
sea level and the largest dry salt lake in Australia, a great way to see
it is with our fly-drive package. We drive to William Creek then pick up
a scenic flight over the lake and surrounding areas before returning to
William Creek for lunch.
A leisurely drive back after lunch thru the biggest cattle
station in the world and the Dingo Fence to Coober Pedy rounds off your
day. |
