Comment: Kennedy Ranges to Mount Augustus (World largest Monolith no less!) W.A.

We climbed Mt Augustus in July 2004...it was hard going but great views. I imagine in the next instalment you will do the climb too!! After that we wound our way back to south to the highway near Monkey Mia..got lost a couple of times, but all good fun. Met the most interesting couple at Mt Augustus. They had driven a morris minor (I think) from England across Europe/Asia then on boat and landed at Derby. He got a job on Fossil Downs Station, then left that to head south .. then years later became a composer and went back to Fossil Downs where he spent months out bush camped beside waterholes composing his music. Just wish I could remember his name! They had no fridge, powdered milk, nothing that needed to be kept cold, very self sufficient.
