Like alot of people.....Territorians are confined to local road trips.
Fortunately......we have it good. All you need is a good truck and a sense of Adventure and some glorious spots await....
Isolation in the Top End
They trap them at these holes and declare them "croc free".......whilst supplying a number to call in the event you see one... which is fuckin retarded cos trust me .....you will not see it.
Swimming in any water other than a pool is spooky as fuck up here.
I always send the kids in first.

I think I'd still be stuck there if I'd got on my flight in March.
Wonderful place but I spose I'd have spent most of the time in a hotel worrying about my bank balance.
I'll be back there one day.
Always plenty of room here for you old sport.....
A few stray women too....

Tipperary station. That’s gotta be named by an Irishman.
pew, pew, pew, pew!
Its about the same size as ireland
You can see in the below photo of the main homestead and the airstrip which is capable of handling a 747
it was once owned in the 80s and 90s by Warren Anderson who turned parts of it into an exotic zoo with thousands of animals. When he went broke, many were re.ocatged and the rest were simply let go. A miniature hippo was famouilsy shot dead by a bunch of hunters who mistook it for a pig on dusk . Even to this day the deer come into the house paddock to graze.
The place is incredible. Best hunting in Australia.....

Did you purchase that one?
CUinNT.
BTW. If a croc comes strolling across your lawn can you shoot it?
Renting this one but looking for a purchase a bit further out . Missus loves the place as "its just like a Khmer house ! " We spend all day underneath.
You cannot *cough* shot crocs - they are protected Shame..cos the missus needs a new handbag.
I have upstairs prepped and ready just in case. Crocs..er....buffalo... with the left.....toads with the right...

I remember working on a farm and a huge bastard king brown, I think, started rearing up and bashing against the glass doors in the sitting room. I freaked and the farmer's wife went out with a look of mild irritation on her face and decapitated it with a spade.
My job was standing in a sunflower field all day shooting the flaming gullahs. They were like pigeons in the UK except they mate for life so you learn to wing the first one and its cries bring its mate back from the flock whereupon you shoot it then wring the first one's neck.
I wasn't proud but I was broke.
Edit: The bore on your toad gun looks a little excessive for the job, but it being Australia they are probably as big as pigs.
