Charnley River Station.1.

On to Charnley River Station (central Kimberley's) a 44klm 4wd track to get to the station, 750,000 acres.  Well worth the drive, the best camp ground we have seen on the Gibb so far.  A large working cattle station.  We set up and went 4 WD to Donkey hole and Donkey springs, 3 pools and had a lovely swim in the top pool.  Next day 32klm 4WD track out to Lily’s ponds (X2) for a very refreshing swim.  Grevillea Gorge next, which entailed climbing down a ladder and also down a waterfall (which Steve did, I didn’t go to the bottom pool).   Dillies Gorge was next and another stunner, we had lunch and a swim here.  Mount Clement lookout shows this vast landscape with the ridges surrounding the land.  Guess what the following day we had a day off and stayed at Charnley River as we really liked it here.
