After a sleep-in, we finished off the geocaches around Muttaburra including a mini power trail along Broadwater which is a section of the Landsborough Channel available for camping but there were not too many camping.

 

Many of the caches in the area have been hidden by RoddyC and youngoldfella in readiness for a major Geocaching event to be held in September. I will be coming back for that event.

 

It just happened that they were in the next town called Aramac (about 85 kilometres away), placing more caches for the event.

 

After a couple of phone calls, we organised to catch up in the afternoon.

 

It was getting close to the 19000 milestone so after checking out which cache it would be, we headed to Aramac.

As it turned out, White Bull (GC72TC3), in the centre of Aramac was the lucky cache and was also the spot we caught up with Rod and John.

 

It was good to catch up and chat about the September event.

 

After clearing the geocaching map around Aramac, it was back to Muttaburra, dodging the dead kangaroos, live kangaroos, live emus, live cattle and live horses.

 

At one point I stopped to see if my eyes were deceiving me. There were three rogue cotton bushes growing on the edge of the road complete with cotton ready to pick.

 

Tomorrow we head to Longreach for 5 days of tourist activities.
