We continue following the tracks of the Old Ghan Railway, not much remains of the track now, a few rusted and broken bridges and the ruins of the railway sidings are the only proof of this past existence in this unforgiving landscape.
Half way between William Creek and Maree Lake Eyre South comes into view, What an enormous expanse of ...salt. Your heart goes out to the first explorers for the disappointment they must have felt on realising it was salt.
Moving further along the line, not far from Maree now and as those afternoon clouds build up again, we came across a unique art display, one sculpture is Plane Henge, another the Ghan Hover Bus, The Terrier tanks(the head is a car chassis). and Flower power.
The track also takes us through the famous dog fence.
Pheww made it.
