The Bungle Bungles and a "short" trip to Kununurra

The Bungle Bungles

Now known as Purnululu  This has been on my wish list for years , especially when on my Gibb River Rosd trip 5 years ago, I was within 100km from it, but decided not to detour. Considering it is about 4000km from Melbourne it wasn't much of a detour. 

Anyway now that I am in the area again, this opportunity won't pass. 

Purnululu is a national park with some wonderful attractions. 

Firstly the amazing beehive like mountains created by the weathering of millions of years. 

Secondly are a number of attractions like Echidna Chasm. Viewing this wonder involved for me anyway, a fairly strenuous walk up and I mean up a rocky dried up river bed, and then winding through a very narrow rocky passage with only occasional glimpses of the sky way up in the distance. 

I will include a short video. Keep a watch for the amazing dragon flies. 

My latest detour is to Kununurra.  Probably a bit stupid as its extra travel, but the appeal of that huge Lake Argyle is drawing me. Plus Halls Creek camping ground is very ordinary. 

Did I mention the temperature is mid thirties 

Turns out I can't include a video using the iPhone Blogger app. I'll try and put it on you tube
