Past Expeditions

Mapping Kennedy Junction

Members of the Geographic extremes Society were the first to map and define the continental drainage divide tripoint. The group assembled in Injune in central Queensland before travelling to the Mount Moffatt section of Carnarvon National Park. After some walks and photographing the sandstones which contribute to the Great Artesian Basin, we continued through to the Carnarvon Gorge Section for walks up the gorge and onto the Ka Ka Mundi section. The final day was spent venturing onto Caldervale Station to place a plaque at the point where the three major drainage basons of Australia meet – the Lake Eyre Basin (largest in Australia), the Murray/Darling Basin (second largest in Australia) and the Fitzroy Basin (Largest East Coast drainage basin).

Experiencing the Styx River tidal bore

Members of the Geographical Extremes Society descended on Marlborough before travelling out to Charon Point. First stop was the bridge over the Styx River at Ogden, where we were lucky enough to see the tidal bore moving up the river. Travelled out to the Charon point Conservation park where we had the place to ourselves.
