After travelling all the way to the tip across dirt roads and tracks, negotiating creeks and rivers it wasn't until we were back on the black top that the first - and only - puncture occurred.
Chuck with his fancy tyre gauges was able to pick up a leaking tyre following running over the remains of a kangaroo. The tyre was changed and our journey continued on to Mareeba for a repair to take place. We then travelled onto Atherton, Malanda, Millaa Milla and towards Innisfail. It was around here that Russell headed to Townsville to catch up with friends. While travelling through South Johnstone the kids were able to see a sugar train carting sugar cane to the mill.
Chuck attempted to get to the highest point in Queensland. Only thing stopping him was the rather long walk from the carpark.
