Mitchell Falls. W.A.

Spent the next couple of days exploring Kununura and Wyndham went out to wyndham port had barra and chips at the Wyndham pub, up to the 5 rivers lookout, what a view and then to the boab prison tree . Then it was on the Gibb River Road , our first stop was El Questro where we spent a couple of nights. Had an enjoyable stay, we went out to el questro gorge and did the 2hr return walk then it was back to camp for lunch and then the afternoon cruise up Chamberlain gorge, with champagne, fruit and  spectacular scenery , we were serenaded by our host on guitar and skipper on the harmonica. We met a couple from Perth who we went on a 4x4 trek with on el questro station. Arrived at Drysdale river Station , on the Kalumbaru road only to meet up with our friends again , we then travelled up to Mitchell Falls together. We got the helicopter ride out to the falls and did the 3k walk back . The scenery up here is very impressive .
