Ellery Creek - West MacDonnell Ranges.

After restocking in Alice for beer, food and more beer, we moved on to the West MacDonnell ranges, we headed to camp at Ellery Creek Waterhole (By recommendation from Rick). The water is absolutely freezing here, 9 metres deep in places and below 10 degrees. Saw a  rock wallaby and lots of bird life again. Oh my god at 8.30pm -Yes I know what time it was, did the Dingo's start howling - Steve loved it and I was scared stiff!!! There was one right by our camper and he was calling to the one's in the creek!!!!
So scary!!!!!!
The following day we went to the water hole to relax and spend the day here as it was spectacular!!!! We were advised by a local to swim out through the gorge and look up, although he found it to cold, so we decided to put on our wetsuits and go for it. This we did and stunning is not even enough to describe the view, it was so cold, however through the other side were palms and beaches, the rock formation was incredible!!!!
Certainly worth the cold trip!!!! Later on that day Steve managed to get a free go on a
hobbie canoe and take alot of lovely pictures, the man who lent him the canoe thought he wasn't going to get it back as Steve was gone that long!!!!
Also later on very quick dips without wetsuits!!!!

Steve took this picture headed out through the Gap from the Canoe.

Heading back through the gap.
