Sunday 4th June - The Big BOG Day

We set off early for a big day of driving and we made it to Kingfisher camp. Well that's the short version anyway! We were told the road was passable, but at Bowthorn Station they said the road was closed and the front end loader that was clearing it had been bogged "but you'll get through if you stay to the centre of the track". They were the words ringing in David's ears as he pulled to the side of the road to pass the loader and sank in the Big BOG. Fortunately the grader was able to stabilise the road ahead, get back over to us an pull us out 50 minutes later. Never have we felt so relieved to pull into a campsite than that night, and then we were delighted to find we had the campground all to ourselves.
