Jericho on Jordon Creek

Sunday 27th May After a night at Anakie, we slept in and did not leave until 11 AM. Pat & Allan were deviating and going to Blackall but decided not to do this so today we drove to Jericho. Found a great camp site on the banks of the Jordon Creek. We were told when we had set up camp that this area was covered with water yesterday. A local told us that it had poured for 2 days. En-route we passed over the Drummond Range (553 m) and then Great Dividing Range 434 m before heading to the plains. This area was explored by Major Mitchell in 1836. We were in early today so it gave us time to sort our a few issues with our set-up. Allan drives in in one direction and we drive in the other. When we set up camp, our vans open towards each other and so it makes out camp site nice and secluded. Tomorrow we set out for Longreach where we will stay for 2 days to rationalize our load before we set out for Boulia.
