    Beekeepers Track

    October 4, 2018 in Australia

    Had our first (unintended) 4WD today down Beekeepers Track. Driving from Geraldton, stopped at Port Dennison for a coffee and snack (small chocolate eclair for me (very delicious) and a pie for Mick. Very nice hot coffee.
    Driving down the Brand Hwy, decided to take a detour down Beekeepers Track to takes some photos of wildflowers and got a lot that I hadn’t seen previously. On the map, this track takes you back on to Indian Ocean Drive (the Ocean road) so thought we’d take it through. About half way down the track, it became obvious it is 4WD only, very soft sand. Let down the tyres and went for it, our first time putting the Navara into 4WD. The track became very narrow and much deeper sand, so decided to turn around and come back, not relishing the chance of getting stuck out there on our own and having to dig ourselves out.
