Cocklebiddy, Fraser Range

Friday, April 17
Day 260

We were behind time again and set off early. It’s about 720k to Norseman so we headed off to see how close we could get before running out of steam.

We stopped in at the Cocklebiddy Cave for a look. This cave has been closed to the public for 3 years so we could only check it out from outside. We did encounter more wildlife in the process.

We had decided to stay at the Fraser Range tourist park about 100k east of Norseman but when we got there the park was closed. We pushed on about another 30k until we found a roadside lay by, most of which, in WA, allow 24h stop over’s. This one was very good but the local flies gave us some grief.
