When Charles Sturt travelled along the Murray, he passed through much thick bushland, with tall river redgums and swamp gums, wattles and eucalypts. The land was flat and featureless, apart from the dense bushland.
When Sturt made his journey into Australia's interior, he passed through dry, arid, stony desert, or gibber plain (hence the name: Sturt Stony Desert).
He travelled with George Macleay
Charles Sturt travelled on the Murray River in a whaleboat and a skiff. He was the first explorer to trace the Murray to its mouth, at Encounter Bay, on the southern coast.

Charles Sturt was sure there had to be an inland sea in Australia. Even though he solved the riddle of the westward-flowing rivers (which, unlike rivers on other continents, did not flow towards the coast), and found that the inland river system did not lead to an inland sea, this was something Sturt continued to search for. Fifteen years after his major expedition which traced the Murray River, Sturt still believed there had to be an inland sea, and travelled into the desert country of central Australia - but of course, he never found an inland sea.
