Crossing the Australian Desert By Camel by: Geoff Somers
A follow-up to his visit two years ago when he enthralled his audience with his experiences of crossing Antarctica. In this adventure he tells us of his crossing the Australian Deserts. With three wild camels trained to carry loads, Geoff and a companion trekked 1400 miles across the deserts of Western Australia. An amusing account of how a couple of “Pommies” fared with these wild and unpredictable creatures over three months in the Outback
