Little Desert NP

Sunday, Jan. 18

Setting off to the Little Desert NP Mike suggests that we detour across the Netting Fence Track to Lake Hindmarsh. Sounded like a good idea at the time so off we went. This track was real sand dunes and after struggling to mount one, for the first time on this adventure, it was time to let the air out of our tyres. After this the sand was no longer a problem.

Lake Hindmarsh was bit of an anticlimax as it was bone dry. The council boat ramp gave some indication of where the water would be if the lake was full.

We entered Little Desert NP and camp just south of Kiata. Again we found the campground deserted so picked our spot and spent the next 4 hours dodging feral bees and bush flies. All par for the cause out here.
