  • DeGrey River in Pilbara region

    This is where I spent my last night before finally heading home from my desert trip last year.

    Beautiful and peaceful place to be. The water is very shallow and you can go for a stroll basically in the river. Too far inland and south for crocs so I enjoyed camping right on the river edge, a rare treat for me. The melaleuca trees seem to have a calming effect on the soul.

    You've done well with this image Mick. It does look like a peaceful place and your PP really gives it a wonderful but mysterious feel and it looks so isolated.

      Thank you Isac. After the harshness of the desert landscape this was a lovey spot to set up camp and put the billy on.

        You must have been having mixed thoughts as you set up your last campsite.

        Beautiful spot for a final night.

          Looks good. Is there fishing to be had in this river?

            Oh indeed. A quite night tinged with sadness and almost a sense of physical and mental exhaustion. But what a trip it was!


            And I took the opportunity to catch up with friends on the net and gulp down my last bourbon. Had to set up about 5metres from the Lux on a tiny mound to pick up one bar for the net. Dongle wouldn't work on the ground hence the jerry can

            No fishing here Greg. This river is in the inland Pilbara and dries up completely for long periods.
