Bungabiddy Rockhole

My first exploring as a Yulara resident. This time I reached the dirt tracks immediately. I`m living almost in the middle of nowhere, so to go to another nowhere is quit easy. I had to go west to do some searching, the north east side is back to Alice, and since I lived there the last two years, I had no intention to go back cruising those areas. I travelled also to the south when I picked up my sister in Adelaide, picked up my luggage in Melbourne. Yes, the west was calling. New territory, and west Australia was one of the missing territory or state on my list. So from today I can say that I have put my body in every state in Australia, except Tasmania of course.

Its different than Alice area, more sand and more desolated. Its really the outback over here. Its easy to travel 600k`s without seeing a fellow specie or even a servo. All dirt, sand, bushes, rocks nothing more, pretty boring except the beautiful stretches of nature landscapes, magnificent sunsets, remote untouched waterholes, mind blowing colors, artistic rock formations.
Entering west Australia, I had to find a waterhole, a swim in cool water was absolute necessary after eating dirt for the last 300k`s. So driving around to find a little blue spot marked on the map, is not an easy task. Nowhere signs, nobody around to ask directions. Except camels and snakes escaping from the road when that madman flew by in his red car desperate looking for refreshment. And everywhere dirt tracks , so driving around another 100k`s looking for that track that leads to that refreshing water is an easy thing.

But he , logic is really the most important thing, look around and see where there is a lot of trees and green , waterholes are also situated at rock formations. And yes, there was the track, hidden amount other red dirt , The road, by figure of speaking, leads me to the start of the rock formation, and deep inside those hills was the waterhole waiting.
i provided my self a 5 star camp and ran to the water. Stayed there for a few hours , relaxing in my special noodle seat ( you remember sis) ,the beer floating on the water recovering from a hard days work.
Back to my luxury camp, handy to take some gear from work, provided myself a campfire and good meal.

I stayed two nights , swimming and relaxing. And then back to Yulara. Back eating dirt for the next 300k`s. The only problem was my fuel was running low, I had a jerrycan, but that was only 20 liters, I didn`t expect to drive an extra 100k`s to find that blue spot on the map. After some hot hours I finally saw that precious big touristic rock and knew that i`ll make it. Almost at the last drop I parked Mrs Dee at my new home and had a cool beer relaxing and thinking, next time two jerrycans .
