My trip to Cape York was fabulous, all worked well.

We also did the chicken track of Gunshot (via south and north bypass track), was so easy.

We saw a lot of Cape York.

It is so remote and nice!

Best part was the track to Cape Melville.

From Cooktown its a long drive!

It took us about 8 hours.

There where some really sandy patches.

We just had one break down on the Old Coen Track, were we damaged a tire.

And there we realised, that it is no so easy to by a new tire at a roadhouse :-(

We had to go back to Laura for a new tire (at the Laura Store, nice person).

And so we missed the Running Creek Track which was scheduled after the old Coen track.
