Day 63
Alice springs is in sight now! But wait, Matt sniffs out another side track, a 4x4 track with levels 1-3 leading to ruby gap a stop we want to make anyways… hmmm. And were off. Lol. The trail is rough but I never put it into 4 wheel drive once. Makes me wonder about ruby gap road, it says to go in groups of 2 minimum and is rated EXTREME!! We cruise for about 4-5 hours to get to the crossroads an old abandoned town along the way. We pose for a few photos and hit ruby gap trail, about 1km down the road I find a sign that says : ROAD IMPASSIBLE haha! I laugh in the face of adversity, and were off. Another 3 hours to go 46km, the road is rough but Peana does it all in 2wd, I am so impressed. We get to camp around 6pm and find the park is closed… hmm… we pay our money anyways to be proper and head into the park, whats this?? Another mitsu, a van. The 4wd version anyways and they got a roaring fire and are blasting opera and drinking wine… hmm interesting I cruise
pokebear
Dont poke the bearpast but then stop reverse and ask if they wouldn’t mind company for the night. It’s a go. Lol. Robert and heidi, a couple traveling around oz to. We enjoy the night swapping stories and listing to opera under the stars in ruby gap, one couldn’t ask for a better night. It was amazing.
