Queensland Map Collection
There may be only one more thing you need, and that is good area maps. HEMA maps are the best ones in Australia and the ones that I use myself. They are the most comprehensive and detailed maps that you find. Click above for a variety of different Queensland maps that may be of help if you are driving to Cape York through Queensland - whether you come from south or west.
North Queensland Maps
Click on the link above and you will be taken to a selection of maps of north Queensland. North Queensland is a beautiful area covered in Wet Tropics rainforests and there is just so much to see and do..
In case you do have the time, it's worth having a look around while you are up here.

York Resources - Posters
and Photos
Posters
Here is a page with some great looking Cape York posters. On the poster here is the famous Palm Cockatoo - found nowhere else in Australia. They can be hard to see and even harder to get photos of. I have hardly ever seen a better photo of a "palmie" than the one on this poster.
And here are some photos that I have taken myself. If you want to use any of them please contact me. I most likely give you the permission but I want to know about it when it's used somewhere.
