Mitchell Falls

We left Drysdale and headed to the falls. The road was pretty corrugated and gave the suspension a good workout along with the tyres as the surface of the road was pretty rocky in places. Once we turned off toward Mitchell Falls the road got even worse! The corrugations were massive, I am pleased to report the car and all the accessories passed the test.

We booked a night at the falls camp ground and at lunch decided to take a helicopter flight up to the falls and walk back down. The walk is only 4k's but I have read that there is no vantage point to look at the falls front on when doing the walk and that a helicopter flight is well worth it to get the views. So we flew from the camp ground up to the falls, the views were spectacular. Tracey had a ball as it was her first time in a helicopter. Vid of the first time in a chopper.

We spent the rest of the afternoon walking down and swimming in all the water falls and water holes, a truly awesome place.

We left the next morning for Kalumburu...
