This is the sitxth part of my series Alone in the Wild - Chowilla Kayak Camping Expedition
This series documents my journey through the Chowilla Game Reserve, as I make my way through the anabranch systems of the Murray River.
This was honestly the best camping expedition I have ever done, and I will be doing more things like this in the future.
I'm already starting to plan my next adventure, which will be through the loch luna game reserve and I can't wait.
I couldn't find much information documenting kayaking through Chowilla, so this is a good way too see the anabranch systems. In fact many people don't even know it exists, but because I grew up in Renmark a town close by I knew it existed as I had heard the locals talk about it before but it wasn't until I was older that I actually visited the area.
Most people will not see some of these parts of the Murray, so it's a good way to see more of South Australia without having to travel and maybe it will inspire you to do something similar. I have to admit it was a concern of mine that the maps might not be accurate, or that I get lost in the reserve so follow my lead and you won't have to worry about that if you do decide to partake in a journey like this.
In this part of my journey I continue my journey from the first camp site along the river and make my way towards the second campsite.
This part of the journey was relatively calm and relaxing, as I drift along the creek with the current.
We take in the scenery more than anything for this part of my trip, and I dribble a little bit of shit along the way.
We also stop for a moment and checkout one of the campsites, which was a nice little spot and would be a good place to stop for a 3 night expedition.
I hope your all enjoying my series, I'm still an amateur when it comes to filming so I will improve my skills over time.
I think for future trips I may switch from a series to more of a movie like feature, bringing together all of the most interesting and best bits.
I'm expecting this to be about a 12 part series, I would have liked to upload longer videos but as it is it takes forever to upload a 30 min part.
Once I have finished the series I'm going to condense all the best bits into on big movie which will be interesting :)
