The Barkly Highway

The Barkly Highway stretches from Tennant Creek (well, strictly speaking it's 20 clicks north, but I think we're allowed some leeway in a country this big) in the Northern Territory 500 miles to Queensland, where it continues onto a junction and becomes the Flinders Highway all the way to Townsville, where these words are written. This is just a quick pictorial in all four directions to show you how incredibly lonely and empty this road is.
