Stuck at Eliot River and Twin Falls camping ground: 3/10


We packed up all ready to head up the northern section Of The Old Telegraph Track, when lo and behold the ute stopped. Despite John and fellow campers there was nothing to do but call for assistance.
While we waited we went back for another swim at The Saucepan, and another swim……..luckily we are at one of the few places you can swim safely, or we would be very hot.
We spent the rest of the day reading and swimming and still waiting. Eventually, deciding help wouldn’t arrive for another day, we accepted the invitation of another group of campers to share their campfire and campfire cooking.
We spent a very enjoyable evening discussing how we all got through the creek crossings and the approach to take to each the next day. Our meal consisted of Garlic and herb damper and stew and to top it off apple crumble……..and of course a few drinks.
