July Cruise Innot Hot springs 18th Jul 10

[Cookie]

We have been out to Innot Hot Springs for a recon and the plan so far is;

1. Breakfast at the usual spot and time,
2. Leave to head up to the tablelands via Kuranda at 9.30 am picking up those from the Northern Suburbs at Smithfield,
3. Up through Mareeba to Atherton then Ravenshoe and on to Innot Hot spings,
4. At the springs there is the creek with the hot spring water and the caravan park has hot water pools at a cost. I have the prices written down I just need to find them and I will post them. There is a small mechanical/wrecking yard across the road but I am not sure if he is open on Sundays as apprently he has had a clean up and removed 3 truck loads of old vehicles so I didn't check. Lunch location will be either be Innot (the pub at Innot was closed the day we went there so I need to confirm they do lunch)or Ravenshoe.
5. On the way back there are the Milstream Falls and the wind farm to have a look at as we come back down to Cairns.

That is the plan so far will post more info as required.

lived in Raven shoe! for 3 years at bording school-at this time of year most blokes have higher voices-might have something to do with the cold!!
cows delivered frozen milk-great place-for Escomoes!

With the FORDS having a good result in Townsville & Mark Webber sticking it to them at Red Bull, I'm inspired for a cruise. Are we still on for this weekend to Innot Hot springs?
