A view from the Connie Sue Highway, which starts near Warburton and continues south to Rawlinna
Len Beadell deliberately diverted a section of the Connie Sue Highway towards this "breakaway" section to provide a view for travellers to enjoy. This area is called the McKenzie Breakaway in the English language. My research has not given a difinitive name in the traditional Ngaanyatjarra langugage (yet)
travelling slightly north westward from Warburton is the Heather Highway which connects the Great Central Road to the Gunbarrel Highway
Another of Len Beadell's famous roads is the Gunbarrel Highway. The Heather Highway (pictured) is the connecting road that takes you from the modern Great Central Road to the historic and famous Gunbarrel Highway.
The Gibson Desert is not all sand dunes, some sections are quite rocky
The Gibson Desert features sections of sand dunes as well as very hard rocky areas. These hard rocky areas were used strategically by the Yarnangu to store water. Known rockholes holding water were a lifeline for Yarnangu when they travelled across the Ngaanyatjarra Lands
