About Russell Osborne

My photo
For ten years I had been planning a transcontinent expedition as a fundraiser for the Children First Foundation. My wife and I left Katherine April 2008 and arrived in Melbourne on the 22/11/09, walking over 6500 Km in total, taking in some of the harshest and remote areas of the planet. Currently, I am organising another Transcontinental Camel Expedition from Perth to Sydney, again for Moira Kelly's Children First Foundation. I work as a keynote Speaker, Ambassador for the Children First Foundation and operate Camel Safaris in South Australia on Beltana Station.

Camel Tours, Flinders Ranges, historic find.

One of the joys of  camel trekking is that you can get to places where not even the latest and greatest of 4x4 can go.
Recently, as I was traversing across the country on Beltana Station, I came across an old boiler and pumping station. It's history is unknown but I will endeavour to find out more.

To see the blog of my find;
As I start to prepare for the Perth to Sydney Thank You Camel Expedition, my mind often wanders off to some of the things of historical value I know I will see along the way. It will take two years to plan the expedition, but in the end, it's all worth it.
Next year, I will be trekking on Beltana Station , Flinders Ranges with the :
Beltana Camel Safaris and Expeditions. Camel Safaris on Historical Beltana Station. It will keep the camels in trekking mode and me fit as customers discover this incredible region of the Flinders Ranges with me.

I hope to see many of you there.
Cheers for now,
