Mt Isa

This is the drive very boring, very straight road. The land is very dry but up ahead is the Great Dividing Range. This is the most substantial mountain range in Australia and the 4th longest in the world. It stretches more than 3,500km (2,175 mile) from Dauan Island off the northeastern tip of New South Wales, then to Victoria and turning west, before finally fading into the central plain of the Grampians in western Victoria. Just a little bit of history for you.
More very dry barren land. Again bit hard to see but the Great Diving Range ahead in the distance
Coming into Mt Isa a big mining town it looked really pretty the photo doesn't do it justice but there is a lot of pollution and I'm sure a lot of cancer in later life!!
