So this is our very broad (COVID dependent) plan of attack, (not a plan really, just a very hazy statement of intent, subject to change at any time or on any whim).
Yes, we know the trip planning currently ends in Mildura. We haven't decided yet which way we will be heading home.
The first thing that is evident from our mud map, is although we have set no time constraints, there is so much of the country we ARE NOT going to see on this trip.
General consensus from travellers who have done this before is that no matter how much time we spend we will never see everything, So this trip is our "suck it and see" outing.
As occurred during our Birdsville Races trip the other factor is listening and taking advice from locals and fellow travelers. The phrase, "Oh you should make sure you visit "such and such" is going to impact heavily on our journey. Our side trip to the Betoota Races started over a beer at the local.
Currently the trip is sitting on 18,000 kilometers but our best guess is that we will end up doing closer to 30,000.
Thanks to "WikiCamps" we have identified "Caravan Parks" (Pink) and "Free Camps" (Green) that we have researched and set as "possible" stays. We would have included "Points of Interest" but there are just too many. We would not have been able to see the rest of the map.
