Barn Hill Station

On Thangoo Station which is one of the few remaining cattle stations in the Kimberly that is family owned and operated. More power to the family for making a real good go of it in this tough country. Diversifying by hosting tourists. I don’t think the cows will be too upset that Regina and I took over that bluff for a few days.
Perhaps the familie’s labours are a little incidental to us because we are excited by access to 50k of beaches and specifically by the cliff line and beaches immediately below our Van. The aspect to the north has two faces. High and low tide. At low the beaches are 150 meters wide, changing to a mere crescent of sand on the high tide with waves surrounding the headlands.

Leaving Barnhill wasn’t very easy this morning.
Early rise, yoga on the cliff top over the beach, a breakfast that couldn’t be beaten, a walk on the beach to the south. We might have hoped we would have to stay because the rapidly rising tide may strand us behind one of the many the rock outcrops that push out from the escarpment. No such luck - we just made it through.
Then breaking camp was so very slow and a final shower in the open roofed amenities. The time has come so off we go.
We may come back here to see what it looks like early in the season after The Wet.Leia mais
