Battle Mountain

I went searching for Battle Mountain and found it.  This is the site of the battle in 1884 that destroyed the Kalkadoon resistance near Mount Isa.  In an often repeated story in history, rocks and spears are no match for bullets.

Ridge

A prominent ridge beside a track halfway to Kajabbi. There is some amazingly wonderful scenery around here, but often you have to go off the beaten track to find it. Next time I'll bring you a photo from the top of this ridge.

Fish In The Field

An art installation at Rowes Bay in Townsville. These fish were swimming toward the waterline.

Wakeboarder

A popular activity at the lake is wakeboarding.  This boat is all set to go.

Boat Ride

I was lucky enough to get a ride on the lake in a great little alloy fishing boat.  Of course I had to take my camera with me, I was not going to miss showing you all the lake from a new perspective.

Paddle For Play

A canoe regatta on an early Sunday morning at the lake.

East Leichhardt Waterhole

A quiet waterhole on the East Leichhardt River.  On another note, this is the 1000'th post since I started this blog nearly five years ago.  Outback Rover's 5'th birthday is coming up soon too.
