ROADS, TRACKS AND UNSEASONAL RAINS

July is usually a dry month, but in the recent years everything is changing. And this year, in July - we have had some unseasonal rains.

It hasn't really caused any big closures - all the main roads and tracks are open as they always are this time of the year.

Even the CREB Track is officially open, although the conditions of that track do get affected a fair bit by the rains.


NATIONAL PARKS OPENINGS

It has also affected Cape Melville, which was supposed to open in the end of July.

Its opening has now been delayed by a month, to the end of August.


COMING EVENTS

So the coming events of this month are Mt Carbine Rodeo, Weipa Bullride, and the NPA Show, Rodeo and Races.

Good to know if you are around and want to include some of these in your trip :-)


GULF SAVANNAH GUIDE

The Gulf Savannah Guide is my life at the moment. If I can push away anything from its way, I will, but unfortunately I cannot do that to everything. There is still the rest of the business to run, and the real life gets in the way too.

As much as I wish to sit down and write it in one go, the reality is different. Rest assured that I am doing my best to get it finished as soon as I possibly can, and get it done properly, with first hand information and all detail possible.


FEEDBACK UPDATED


In the middle of every year, I update the feedback, adding all the ones I had saved up since the last update (there is just no time to do it one by one).

This year, the page number 7 was created, and here it is:
