All we know of the country is what can be read from a map — that we will cross a low mountain pass, into more creek beds, and another gorge and spring. It no longer feels just like freedom, it also feels like exploration.

As we descend from the pass the next morning, the sky is like a whirlpool as seven wedge-tailed eagles turn circles on the thermals. Downstream, the dry waterway wiggles into a stunning gorge, where red rock walls angle down to a grey creek bed. It's the kind of gorge that's prime habitat for the yellow-footed rock wallaby, a fine-featured species commonly described as the prettiest of all wallabies and kangaroos. We scan the cliffs as we walk, looking for wallabies, but all that moves are wild goats, the camels and our feet. A cave peeps down from the cliffs and I climb to its entrance, where I find the mummified skin of a rock wallaby, its head resting on its front paws as though it had simply fallen asleep and died.

At the gorge's end we turn into the wider Eregunda Creek, where maps futilely suggest waterfalls pouring from the cliffs around us. In reality the falls are as dry as the paper of the map, but soon the largest of the springs we'll pass is trickling across the sand beside us. Just looking at it in the dry heat of the Flinders Ranges is cooling. We are now nearing the trek's end, just a day of walking ahead, but the only tracks here are still the camels' and our own.

Blinman is a six-hour drive from Adelaide. Mingle with thousands of camels as they are bought and sold in a festival atmosphere at the world's largest gathering of camels.
