Newman and surounds

We woke up this morning to another blustery day. For the last few days there were 2 things you could be sure of, getting covered in red dirt and almost getting blown away by the wind, but we are still loving it. Because it was so windy we decided to hang around a bit and if the wind kept up we could stay another night. I went for a walk along the edge of the escarpment, along a track that you could easily drive but surprisingly no wheel marks and I found a spot that actually had small trees growing in it, so I assumed no one had driven along it in quite a while. In this day and age I thought that was amazing.
When I arrived back the wind had died down so we decided to head into Newman. The drive in was quite scenic as we continued the drive through the Hamersley Ranges. There is not much to do in Newman apart from the Whaleback mine tour which sadly was booked out till Friday. So we headed up Radio Hill lookout and then headed South.Read more
