The boys and I load up the bikes for a run out west to central QLD for 3 days
we camp at murphy lake one of Leichhardt camps 1844 and his party had been travelling for seven weeks on their expedition from Moreton Bay to Port Essington (300km north of Darwin's present location) when they camped at this spot. Their journey north was to take another 12 months. Progress was slow, as the dense brigalow scrub forced them to make many time-consuming detours and their bullocks were ill-suited to travel in such country. By the time they had reached the Taroom area, however, they were becoming proficient at picking their way through the scrub and in finding and preserving food.,,,,,on his second expedition in 1847 he and his part vanished west of Roma south west of lake murphy no traces were found but in 1902 i grazzer found bullock hoffs on his property shod with hide though to of been from Leichhardt party,
