Cunnamulla to Mt Isa

Left Cunnamulla and headed for Quilpie, roads are narrow, tar,  just one car width so when oncoming traffic approaches you must go off into the gravel to pass. There is a lot of road kill, mainly kangaroos and emus. Stopped off at the Toompine Hotel for a beer before heading into Quilpie where  we set up camp at the Channel Country caravan park. After a soak in the thermal spa, it was dinner, a chat to neighbours then bed.
From Quilpie we travelled to Windorah, roads turned to dirt not long out of Quilpie, quite sharp rocks but not too many corrugations . Decided to stay at Windorah so we set up camp then did a nature drive along the banks of the Coopers creek then around town.
The road to Bedourie was much the same with the rocks very sharp we got a hole in our rock tamer mud flaps and a guy we spoke to in a van said him and his mate got their pipes under their vans smashed . From Bedourie through Boulia, Dajarra to Mt Isa was tar so no more damage.
