Particularly as we had chosen to take the French Line, about 200km of high and deeply rutted sand dunes, stretching between Dalhousie Springs in the west to Birdsville in the East.

Encouraged by their ‘optimism’, we made final preparations and restocked supplies before the next and most demanding stage of our journey.
