Day 2 of Carnarvon Gorge. Set out to cover most of the highlight sites today by walking to Big Bend at the far end of the park. Then on the way back, take the side tracks to visit Boowinda Gorge, Cathedral Cave, Art Gallery, Wards Canyon, Amphitheatre and Moss Garden. All are spectacular features and combine with so many palms, cycad's, ferns and trees. Big day with the GPS total of 26 + km's and so many photo's!!! | ||||

It gets dark early in the rainforest and we just made it to the overnight camp site near the wreck. A thought provoking location knowing the Stinson story, there is not much of the wreck left but there is a memorial. Descended out the next day via Westray's grave. |
