Weekends were always the time to get out the tend and sleeping bags, buy some chops and sausages, fill the esky and head out camping. From Wilpena, through the northern Flinders Ranges, the Gammon Ranges, the desert country of the Strzelecki Track and Cooper Creek, the camping spots were endless. So many wonderful places to explore, so many starts to see and alsways plenty of stories to tell around the campfire.
