I always reckon that tourist maps of Australia should have an overlay of Europe over it to show how vast this country is.

It's an amazing comparison:

Really handy grubstake, going to take this in for reception so they can bring reality to the European travelers

Very nice Grubstake, as they say a picture paints a thousand words

 

[Ded Driver]

thats a dammed good reference map alright. It would give a few would-be foreign trekkers a touch of reality

 

[RM Outback]

Excellent grubstake :clap: and a great thought Manpa :clap:. Grubstake did you smash that together or find it on the Web.

All good I stumbled on the answer from a post in August

I wish them and their families the best.

 

[Rockhunter62]

That was about a month ago now. I beleive they found the body of the young lass but not the young bloke. They were going there to fish of the rocks.

Cheers

Doug

 

[Ded Driver]

yeah last I read was they were still searching the water & shore line but I haven't heard anything for over a week now!

 

[Solid Luck]

Another one gone missing. Hope he didn't become a crocs dinner.

Hope they find him. Why do people break the rules? Say with the vehicle, particularly when you know help is coming back

sounds ominous
if the passer-by said he was going to get a tractor, there's no reason for the young bloke to have left his vehicle.

Yes it is rather strange. Could've hitched a ride with the tractor driver as well.
