A few of us went into Butterfly Gorge today from the Stuart Highway side. The road wasn't too bad as it hasn't been much of a wet season and there were some beautiful places to see.
It was my first real offroading in the new Landrover and as I feared the factory road tyres weren't up to the job - I burst a steel belt on the rocky road which resulted in a bubble in the sidewall of the tyre. I do have new rims and tyres on order that will be much better for offroading.
We were basically just doing a bit of exploring searching for new potential camping spots. Rob and Jessie took a couple of quad bikes and we also did a bit of exploring on these which wasn't good for my hay fever due to all the spear grass!
