Crossing the QLD Border; Lorella Springs to Hell’s Gate
After an awe inspiring walk amongst the towering pillars of
the Southern Lost City in Limmen, we set of with the intention of crossing the
border. This would be a long and arduous drive, and Simon is doing all of the
hard work! The road conditions require experience and significant
concentration, and I’m just too damn nervous to drive at the speed that he can!

The country changes little on the NT stretch, but as we
approached the border the trees became denser and the road narrowed. Crossing
the border was a relief, with a final push to Hell’s Gate Roadhouse for an overnight just as it got dark. The fella who owns Hell’s Gate Roadhouse has built the place
from scratch in 1986 and it is now on the market for $7million! I think you'd have to pay me that to live there as it's so remote!!
