Galvin's Gorge, Home Valley HS

Saturday, May 23

We had consider the option of moving our camp into the powered section of the campground but decided that if we were going to pack up and move, we might as well go onto Home Valley Homestead. Before hand, we continued another 5km’s up the Kalumburu Road to check out Drysdale Homestead’s alternative camp ground at Miner’s Pool. This is an excellently prepared campground with access to a billabong.

We called in along the way to see Galvin’s Gorge. This is a spot that had intrigued Jan and was well worth the short walk in to see. We almost tripped over a water monitor on the path and the birds were plentiful.

Further down the road we stopped at a lookout over the Cockburn Range for some photos.

Then onto Home Valley to make camp.
