2015 Big Trip 11

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. :-)
