Day 426: Purnululu National Park – Cockburn Rest Area

Saturday, 2 August 2014                                                                                          318.1kms

We left camp at 8.10am and after driving on the windy, dippy road, we were back on the highway at 10.30am. We made a stop on a creek to have a look around and have a break from the car. Lunch was at Doon Doon Roadhouse where Elokin and Hendrix ran through the sprinkler before it got turned off on them. I decided to have a drive as it had been a long time. I don’t like driving on dirt roads with the van in tow, so Nath has driven for the past month or so.

We decided to go for Emma Gorge and do the walk this afternoon. Problem being that we arrived at 4.15pm and there is no gorge access after 3. So we walked back to the car and left. There goes that idea. We will eventually walk Emma Gorge…. Next time.

We arrived back at Cockburn Rest Area on the intersection of the main highway between Wyndham and Kununurra and the Great Northern Highway.
