Cameron Corner Day 7

Day 7 -  Thursday 16th August 2012

Tibooburra to Cameron Corner

Distance Traveled 148kms

We only had a short distance to drive today so we had a later take off.  It was nice to sleep in and have a relaxing take off.  We stopped and looked at the old shearing station and swing bridge.  From here we dropped into town to fuel up and grab supplies.  It was nearing midday so it was time to head for the corner.  The roads for the first part were very nice till we passed the road plant group and then from there the corrugations started.  we found a clay pan along the track so we stopped for a brief photo and before getting into national parks we collected fire wood.  From here it was about 40kms to camp so after a brief stop at Fort grey which is a nice national park camping area we pushed on into camp.  We arrived at the dog fence which indicates the boarder to cross and find Cameron Corner and camp.  We took photos as we passed through into QLD then walked over to the post which is the point at which QLD, NSW and SA meet.  We took photos celebrated being there and then went to the corner store to find out about camping.  We got a powered site right behind the store with a camp kitchen ready to be used.  It was a warm afternoon so we set camp threw on shorts and enjoyed the sun.  We all had early showers then began the fire to cook the roast.  Our roast was spectacular we even got crackling.  We spent the rest of the evening around the fire keeping warm.

 Roads are open, off we go.
