GRR_5 -
Mitchell Falls
Drove off the GRR to the
King Edward River camp via Drysdale.
Only 78km to MF. Left the trailers at KER
camp. Road was full of loose 'gibber' ball bearings, which made taking corners 'at speed' "interesting", rocks, corrugations (6" on a 2' swell),
rock steps/ledges, smouldering fires, and only one dead trailer! That was only the drive in! Told the drive usually takes 2.5 - 3 hrs!!
Up at 6:30am, left
camp at 8, 2hr drive to MF
camp. We decided to fly in, 10 min, and walk out - 4 hrs later after walking, swimming, art gazing, more swimming & walking, followed by more swimming, we drove back in 1.5 hrs - passed the grader!!!!!!!!!
Off to
Home Valley then
El Questro - 4 days at each. :-)
