Marble Bar to Pannawonica

80 Mile Beach

Just in front of the 80 Mile Beach Caravan Park, not sure how many fish were being caught, but there was plenty of opportunity

Where's Greg?

On our way to Marble Bar

Desert Pea

On the footpath in front of a house in Marble Bar

Jasper Deposit

Near Marble Bar, it was originally mistaken for Marble, hence the name of the town.

Lookout!

This is the lookout where the four gorges meet in Karijini National Park. Note the gate which can be opened so that rescuse teams can lift people out of Hancock Gorge.....

Katrina climbing

On the way to Handrail Pool in Weano Gorge in the Karijini National Park

Max looking

Weano Gorge in the Karijini NP

The handrail

and the knotted rope they did not mention in the brochure!

Canyon Greg

Nearly out of my depth on a mini canyoning adventure. Self portrait chest deep in freezing cold water on the way to the top of Weano Falls

Cold & happy

Halfway through Weano Gorge, we had just climbed through the small waterfall at the rear of the picture and made our way along a rock ledge about 5 metres above the stream which was too shallow to fall into!!

Max climbing the walls

What about the curve sign?

Strange but true!

Wildflower heaven

and the book was missing a few models of wildflower

Pilbara iron ore train

about 3km long they tell me, this was heading south on the rail line from Karratha to Tom Price

Mount Sheila

Here I am talking to Kelvin from the top of Mount Shiela just north of Tom Price. The GPS told me we were 1003 metres above sea level and we drove up!

Going down

The photos never do hills justice do they?

Cowell Electric

Could not beleive it! Graham Norton from Port Neill was working for Cowell Electric in the Pilbara installing solar panels to power something or another. Small world

Cossack

Nice seaside twon near Karratha with some historic features not including lime and rasberry spiders.....

Karratha Craft

Here she is elbow deep in quilting fabrics

Pannawonica rellies

Here we are in Pannawonica with Harley & Natalie and their two kids Lauren & William

Baby dumper
