6.30am – Early night sees us up early. We make a snap decission to go into the national Park. Weve been warned to get there by 7am and be out 9am befor it hits 40 degrees. People have die in this park from heat stroke.
7.15am – on the road. Its only 35kms out of town.
We arrive and there is only 8 cars in the car park so weve beat most of the morning rush. Grab heaps of water, fly nets and cameras. 1.4kms return.
8am – We get there. This gorge is amazing. Next to Katherine gorge this almost the best. We set up in Natures window and take in the sites. Leo heats up and heads back to the car with Tanya and jett and I do part of the 9km loop hike. It gets too hot and we turn back after 1km.
9.30am – we check out the Z bend trail. Another amazing gorge. Wish we Were here in winter as I’d hike this whole park. Next time.
