Far North Queensland Didgeridoos - Old didgeridoos from Queensland are extremely rare, and only one 19th century example is known to be in existence. Field research by ethnologist Roth indicates that the instrument was traded to the Far North Queensland area from the Gulf country sometime in the early 1800s, and that the instrument was known locally as yiki-yiki. These didgeridoos were longer than those found in other parts of Australia, typically measuring from 7 to 9 foot long. Unfortunately, no field recordings of the yiki-yiki are extant, so it is unknown whether the local playing style of Far North Queensland was overtone-present or -absent.

Far north Queensland is home to two World Heritage Listed areas, the ‘Wet Tropics’, extending from Cooktown almost as far south as Townsville, and the Great Barrier Reef, extending from the tip of Cape York Peninsula almost to Fraser Island. At the northern tip of Australia lies the savannah wilderness of Cape York Peninsula, a wild and sparsely populated area. Its rugged coastline points towards New Guinea while the eastern side of Cape York is fringed by the coral gardens of the Great Barrier Reef. The Islands of Torres Strait, made up of more than 100 islands, lie to the north of Cape York. This spectacular region contains a variety of landscapes; lush jungle to saltpans, mangroves to dunes, coral reefs to eucalypt woodlands and underground caves.

Biologists have described the spectacular rainforests of the Wet Tropics as the "greatest celebration of life on earth". The farm and grazing lands are "the food bowl" of far North Queensland - yielding a constant supply of fruit, vegetables and grains to local and export markets.
