2006 Tractor Trek from Northam to Normanton and Karumba to Cape York and return to Musgrave . Some trekkers will commence the trek at Cape Leeuwin in the south-west of Western Australia and will join other trekkers at Northam thereby crossing the continent from Cape to Cape.

The 9G Chamberlain tractor was the famous workhorse of the late 50's and 60's, and was designed and built in Western Australia. These machines, which are capable of a relatively high speed ( 50 km/h, can be made comfortable to drive, and of course have a proven reliability over a long period of time. These tractors can traverse rock, mud, sand and relatively deep water. They have a reputation of being a "go anywhere Machine".

These photo's were taken at the start of the Trek outside our shop and because Im having trouble finding the pictures you may have to squint a bit because it must have been very dark in Northam!
