Canning Stock Route - 2nd trip , 2010

Brenda & I decided to travel CSR this year (the centenary of completion) . Brenda had a special reason to do this trip - her late father was a drover and travelled many stock routes and probably this one too . To be comfortable we needed a camper - declined against another camper trailer - wanted a slide on for the Patrol ute . In the end we got one from www.cm-campers.com.au , we got the Ezi-up , because it is easy to set up ..... it was brilliant - no trouble at all .

First camp on CSR - near well 50

Durba

Well 6

 We travelled solo (apart from our little dog = Tess) , until our son-in-law and his mate caught up with us at Durba Springs (we had it to ourselves before they got there)
We had no trouble at all , enjoyed the trip .
 Brenda took along some silk flowers which she placed on all the graves along the way .
We left home in Pinjarra early and made our first camp 40 minutes north of Galena bridge , second camp was near the Yannarie River . Third night was spent at Balla Balla with friends .From there we spent a long day in the saddle and made it to Telegraph Pool where we stayed for two nights .
We travelled from there to the start of the CSR over a few days , then headed down ... start of track was wet and some bypasses .
We took 21 days to travel down , took our time & met some interesting travellers  , and had some beaut camps .... started trip with tyre pressures at 24/22 lb , reduced to 22/20 lb on one difficult dune ....refuelled at Kunawarratji.
