Ranges Outback look Out

 

The first European exploration into South Australia’s Flinders Ranges & Outback was by Edward John Eyre in 1839. This first expedition of Edward john Eyre’s into the Flinders Ranges & Outback is arguably the most historic yet little known of exploration into the Flinders Ranges & Outback. On this historic first expedition he discovered 'Depot Creek'. Depot Creek was to have a major strategic role in the early exploration of the Flinders Ranges & Outback. Other prominent explores such as John Horrors, Ernest Giles, Benjamin Babbage & John McDouall Stuart made camp here at various times used this spot. Depot Creek also supplied water to Port Augusta & the railways. See Old Pictures...

This was originally connected to Lake Torrens & was also for a time the Head of Spencer Gulf. This spot also puts in perspective as you view the extent of the tour with the Flinders Ranges in the background.

 

It's then back into Port Augusta via the Depot Creek road. A little known fact is that this is South Australia's first & original Outback track. Used well before the Oodnadata, Strezlecki & Birdsville tracks were even set foot upon.
