Leaving Brewarrina by River
Set off from Brewarina really enjoying being on the water again. Have included a photo from yesterday because I like the shot at the weir. The water is not deep and in some places I hit the bottom. It is clearer than anything I have paddled on so far on the trip. Flow is about the same as that of the Mid-Brisbane River which is the amount of water released from Wivenhoe for Brisbane use.
The river is a bit boring and it bends around a lot. Local rule of thumb is one road kilometre gets the same distance as three river kilometres.
Got a flat tyre which had to be repaired. Although I am not on the road I use the wheels to get the kayak up and down from the river;
