Kalkadoon Hotel

The Kalkadoon Hotel at Kajabbi.

Kajabbi Camp Sunset

At the Kajabbi pub we camped out under the stars, talked round the fire and listened to the didgeridoo.

Didgeridoo

This is the site of my first didgeridoo gathering just a few minutes from Kajabbi. Here, with the help of some knowledgeable people, I cut down some branches that were successfully turned into musical instruments.

Dry Riverbed

Crossing the dry Leichhardt River into Kajabbi. A wide stony river, only flowing in the wet of course.

Road

A section of the road heading to Kajabbi. There is is plenty of scenery around this area and it's a good drive. There are also plenty of 4wd tracks to explore on the Old Mount Isa Kajabbi road.

Kajabbi Via Lake Julius

Last weekend I made a trip to Kajabbi. I drove the short way, which means about 120km of dirt road. Much of it corrugated, with some sections of large bulldust holes. It is currently in very good condition due to a lack of rain and easily passable in a two wheel drive car.

The Top

Yes, I really was there, at the top of the lead stack.

Candy Stack

The candy stripe copper stack pales in comparison to the size of the lead stack.

View

From the top of the lead stack is a marvellous view of the town. This is looking east toward Cloncurry. You can see the curvature of the Earth when the horizon is so distant.

Lead Stack

I recently had the good fortune to take a visit to the tall lead stack in town. The lead stack is visible behind me.
