Crossing the Great Simpson desert with paper maps and compass. ep2
This is my second video about our East-West Jeep Expedition.
We crossed the whole Australia continent from the east coast to the most west point-Steep point. 18 days, with five Jeeps, 13 team members and 6000 kms. We crossed the great Simpson desert, we camped all the way from the east coast to the west coast. This is definitely one of the best overland expedition I've ever been to.
This trip is meant to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the human first vehiclely crossing of the continent.

Drone BEAUTIFUL AUSTRALIA (Simpson Desert-The Outback) Desert Lines 1080HD..old school;)
Desert Lines, filmed and edited in June-July 2019 on an Autel Evo drone, was created with the intention of sharing some lesser known parts of this country, this magical continent. These harsh lands have a vast barren beauty and fierce power, more than many including myself will likely never truly understand. I'd like to think this video makes it out to some folks that may not have the opportunity or means to visit.
The soundtrack to this video called Time is by the incredible Hans Zimmer. I've used this music without license or approval.
I have no intention to make or generate any money from this video, it's my contribution for the Youtube massive.!!! Thanks to all those nameless contributors who have inspired my dreams, given me lessons in everything imaginable and helped me through some darker days ????????
To take a trip into these remote parts of Australia is quite an undertaking on many levels. It requires substantial planning, vehicle maintenance/modifications/repair knowledge, road knowledge, knowing the weather, flies, heat, dig your own toilets, survival plans etc so it is not for everyone.
Love and respect goes out to all those who care and look after this magical country.
I am forever grateful this is my home, if only for a speck in time.
Keep Australia Beautiful xoxoxoxo
