Travelling the Gibb River Rd

Your a bit early for me Big Kev, I'm coming from the other end a month later.
If you check Trucksters WWW page he has links to a few of the 4 X4 clubs. They might have someone if you post the question.

Wrong end for me - coming up from Sydney way - 2 adults and 4yr old - may meet along the way !!

I will be arriving Broome end of May and travelling GRR to Mitchell Falls and Kalumburu from late May early June. Wife plus 6 year old girl and 11 year old boy and a tinny. Probaly taking about 2 weeks plus in the area at this stage but no fixed plans.

Email me is probably the best way. Post your address and I will respond to it.

May pass you at some stage we are starting up the Gibb RR a few days after you. Properly the 6th, there is a stairway to the moon showing on the 5th in Broome would like to show the people travelling with us that
(For those who have not seen it the stairway to the moon is a quite spectacular event when the full moon corresponds with the low tide and produces reflections in the shallows looking like a stairway up to the moon. With Broomes 10 meter tides this looks great and people come from miles to sit on their fold up chairs and enjoy a couple of cleansing ales or smooth reds according to your preference.
We will not be getting off the main GRR this trip unfortunately so will only be spending just over a week on that part of the trip, as we are doing a big circle up through Darwin and back down to Alice and over the Great central highway then back up to the Pilbara where we live.

Kevin, if you are a member, email David or Michelle Jacka and ask for my email address (Drew - Member 152). David will pass it on to you I am sure. Go to the "About us" section at the bottom of the page and link to Michelle and David there.

Kevin (or any other forum members travelling the Kimberley),

I live in Derby at the west end of the GRR and will have made at least one trip along the GRR by the time you turn up. It's still closed at the Barnett River for now. I have the task of organising a one month itinerary around the Kimberley for a group from the LROC of WA and with luck we will get them into a few places the tourists can't access. If you need some local knowledge when you get here I live opposite the north end of the caravan park in Rowan St. You should see a red Land Rover 110 Defender in the driveway and maybe me sucking on a tin about beer o'clock if I'm in town.
