On to Innisfail, uneventful. Drove around town and did some shopping before settling at a Wangen parking bay on the creek off the Sth Johnstone River. Local traffic only should be quiet and mostly was.
Next morning coast or inland? The weather is turning foul with heavy rain clouds building so maybe inland toward Chillagoe things will be more stable.
Stopped off at Wooroonooran National Park, Crawfords lookout, and walked the 4km return to the Nth Johnstone lookout. A real trek. Should have reconsidered when going down hill continually all the way. It's a very steep muddy tropical rainforest track descending about 300m in 2km. Hey bud you have to get back up again. But I got the pick and made it back to the road.
Overnight in Atherton as the weather did turn and driving was not looking like fun. Parked up near the RSL that is now closed permanently.
