Australia is a land of remote places; most of the country has little to no mobile network coverage. Likewise, many of these remote regions are served by little to no road network. Where there is no paved road, the driving surface may be gravel, dirt or sand. Dystopian Mad Max visions aside, it really is a country for road warriors. Naturally, we decided to hire one for a short road trip with caravanning friends, camping in southern Queensland and northern New South Wales.

More #birds seen at Richmond River Nature Reserve, South Ballina #NSW. Ocyphaps lophotes | the crested pigeon is an endemic native with an erect crest (📷1). Entomyzon cyanotis | the blue-faced honeyeater, a.k.a. the bananabird (📷2). Another look at the gorgeous Trichoglossus moluccanus | rainbow lorikeet, a common & rather vocal parrot (📷3). Not nearly as pretty, Threskiornis molucca | the Australian white ibis is colloquially known as the “bin chook” (📷4).
And there ends our short 4WD tour.

Pitched in Richmond River Nature Reserve, South Ballina #NSW. Vehicle access to the adjacent long surf beach is now disallowed, so we didn’t get the chance to experience driving in the Landcruiser on sand (we’re also conflicted about beach driving). But we did access the beach on foot (📷1&2), observing Thalasseus bergii | great crested tern at the waters edge (📷3) & 🐬 dolphin jumping for joy just offshore (📷4).

Leaving camp mid-morning we again enjoyed views of prominent Mount Lindesay (📷1) before taking the Colins Gap on the B91 into NSW, then back into Queensland, arriving at Queen Mary Falls in Main Range National Park. The park is part of the Gondwana Rainforests of Australia World Heritage Area (remnants of rainforest that once covered all of Australia). Queen Mary Falls are a 40m drop on Spring Creek, which forms the Condamine River's upper reaches (📷2). This river in turn constitutes part of the headwaters of the Murray-Darling—one of Australia's longest river systems—seen here from Carr’s Lookout, with The Head between Mt Superbus on the left & the foothills of Wilson’s Peak centre-frame (📷3). Riding in the Landcruiser (with permanent 4WD) we took Condamine River Rd, making 14 river crossings to Killarney (📷4); the gravel 4WD-only road follows an old bullock wagon track once used to service riverside farms & for transporting logs to local mills.

#Wildlife noted on a morning walk from pitch in the vicinity of Mount Barney. Cracticus nigrogularis | the pied butcherbird is a native songbird (📷1); the hooked bill tells of a carnivorous habit. Danaus petilia | the lesser wanderer butterfly is a frequent sight in Australia (📷2), as is Melanitis leda | the common evening brown—so named because it’s typically seen flying at dusk (📷3). Rhinella marina | the cane toad can grow up to 15cm, but this juvenile was hidden in grass (📷4); this invasive species was introduced to Australia in 1935 to control beetles, but they spread rapidly, poison native predators with their toxins & have caused major ecological damage.

Images capturing dawn in the vicinity of Mount Barney. Mount Maroon was tinged red by the first rays of sun (📷1). The shadows smartly departed from Mount Barney’s flank soon after (📷2). A heavy dew was accompanied by morning mist in the valley between us & Mount Argyle, serving to outline eucalyptus trees against the rising orb (📷3); mist also shrouded the trees lining the access road (📷4).

Driving in convoy with experienced caravaners, for our first night we went inland from the Gold Coast to a pitch in the vicinity of Mt Barney. Our aim with this short hire was to gain familiarity with the 4WD’s camping form factor, rather than its off-roading abilities. Arriving later than planned, & with eyes peeled for kangaroos, we caught the evening light on Mount Lindesay as we neared our destination (📷1). Mount Barney Creek looked serene in the golden hour (📷2) & part of Mount Barney itself was visible from pitch (📷3). In the remaining daylight we figured out how to raise one of the rooftop tents & our friends lit a fire as dinner was prepared (📷4).

We rented a Britz Warrior 4WD, based on a Ford Ranger double cab with automatic transmission & 3,650kg GVM upgrade (📷1). Specs include high & low-range 4-wheel drive; bull bar; snorkel; all-terrain tyres; long-range fuel tank; 2 spare tyres; personal locator beacon (PLB); Outback safety kit; 2 roof-top tents (📷2); 3m tall canopy with kitchenette (📷3); 270 degree “bat wing” awning & camping table/ chairs (📷4). Ours also came with an infestation of baby Huntsman 🕷️ spiders & 🐜 ants! NB. thl monitor the location, speed & safe driving of their hire vehicles; an insurance upgrade is mandatory to avoid an 8,000 AUD bond being charged to your credit card.
