an unusual upload on a monday, I thought I would upload a swift 10 minute video showing the Alice Springs district in all its glory after the significant rains we've had, enjoy.

I lived in Alice Springs for 29 Years (1955 to 1984 the moved to Darwin) and goodness me I experienced many droughts and and serious floods. The footage you're showing just brought back numerous memories in particular the Charles river crossing the old dipper under the Geoff Moss bridge.

That's bloody cool mate, you would have seen a hell of a lot in that time. Would have been a very nostalgic vid for you 😄

Wow! 😲 That's a lot of water over there. No wonder it's so lush and green. It looks so different to what the NT outback usually looks like. And this is probably the first time I saw other vehicles in your video, let alone a town. 😁👍

Great Bonus Video. We were lucky enough to have been in Alice many years ago when it rained. The Todd River was running the next day. Thanks for showing us this recent downpour. 150 mils will make a big difference to the outback. It looks magnificent.

Going through the big dipper up the north road brought back memories before the bridge was built. We use to go sliding down the big rock at the telegraph station after the Todd stopped flowing. Love it when the Todd flowed pre bridge days everyone would swap sides on town so they did not get stranded lol. Going to Sadadeen High was an adventure when the Todd flowed lol. Great video thanks for sharing.

Wonderful video and drone images, what a sight. Tell me, is the Alice a lawless place where tourist are likely to get beaten up and robbed by drug or alcohol affected youth, as the eastern states media portray it.? I have often wanted to ask someone who actually lives there.? 150 MLS,, what a ripper rain

This requires a long thoughtful response but I'll say this, it's beautiful here as you can see... there is some great people here etc... but yes it's also damn terrible here don't get it confused. It's really easy to find out what it's like here, there's a reason it has a shitty reputation. Watch spanions youtube vid, he was just here. Cheers mate

@@OutbackOffroadNT I think today’s report of last night activity in the Alice, tells me all I need to know. When fed politicians are calling for the riot squad, you know there’s something very wrong. I won’t be venturing that way anytime soon, which is a very sad state of affairs

@matttasmania9506 Місяць тому
Spoke with local council lads. They pulled up before the first river exit and parked up so hopefully get graded soon after it dies down. Ready for finke desert race i rekon. They might trim it again before the race but push the bulk of it about now. Yeah she rain here consistently but not as much as you guys. But the river is pumping atm take couple days to move on an drop

Yeah it'll be my first time, keen to see. The rain is like snow event back home we all get out in 4x4s an explore the place with family an friends. Got my camping gear organised can't wait either. It's nice not freezing my ass off or getting soaked 90% of the day and stand around like penguins huddled leaning on a angle. And starting a fire here is a dream.

Howdy, been watching a while. How long ago did you film this? We are looking to head up around the western macs mid April. Had planned to do around Birdsville but that seems wet around the Warburton. I've seen the Tod twice with water in it, they says the times and you're a local, might have to test that theory.
