West MacDonnell Ranges 30/4-1/5

Finally the car was all safe to drive and we headed to the West Macs! We stopped at Simpson’s Gap and Ellery Creek Big Hole, which ended up our overnight stop, to allow Andy to recover from a few dizzy episodes. And what a free camp - both girls instantly found opal in the rocks near the van. They braved into the waterhole on their inflatables and relaxed reading while Andy fossicked in the surrounding water beds.

The next day started with a scenic Dolomite Loop walk (mainly enjoyed by me and Andy 😬) and pack up to move on to Ormisston Gorge. More splashing in the waterhole there, while Andy rested. We decided to head back to Alice to be on the safe side with Andy’s vertigo and enjoyed the AS Brewery food and vego meal at The Locals cafe one more time.

Farewell Alice and see you soon Gemtree!もっと詳しく
