Simpson Desert: 50 Years On (2013)

In 1962, Reg Sprigg and party completed the first motorised crossing of the Simpson Desert. Fifty years on, Vic Widman led another group on the first crossing of the Simpson for 2012. The adventures of Vics group were quite different to those of the exploration party and just as challenging. The video also features the Oodnadatta Track, Mt Dare and Birdsville.
