682 kilometres from the mouth.
Spectacular morning. Still water and no wind. Warmer than previous days. It was about 30k to lock 7.
Got to within a few hundred meters of the lock in about 3.5 hours.
Turned the phone on to call and had one way communication to me and I spent too much time trying to get a position so the reception would work. Limited success.
Got around the lock 7 (it is closed) by myself and the trusty wheels. Had lunch and then paddled as much as the afternoon as I could.
Passed up one camp which was pretty good but decided to go a little further.
Saw on the map “Devils elbow bend”. First thing I saw was a houseboat on the corner. Then this…
So that’s camp 682. A.. mazing.
Got about 110k to Renmark.. This is the toughest section so far.
