Cathederal Gorge in the Bungle Bungle

[loose cannon]

Not the best of shots but at least it gives an idea. Had a bus load of tourists right behind me so just time for a quick hand held snap. Needed a tripod really and more time to compose.

Spectacular!

Great that you had some-one there to give size perspective.

Yeah it's very special Greg. The entire Bungle Bungle is pretty wild country.

Yowzers, what stunning colours Mick, just beautiful. I envy you being out there.

[Ironwood]

Wow, and aptly named.

Thanks guys. The Bungles are fairly easy to access once you're in the Kimberley, just a 54km drive in from the blacktop about 100kms south of Halls Creek. The track in can get a bit rough and that deters many but it's well worth the effort.

I sooo want to get there.

Agree with Greg about including someone for scale.

Yes, not one of your best shots but pretty good for a snap.

Probably worth going back to get it right...

I'll be going back for sure Alan, I didn't realize the scale of the place, it's huge.

The drive in is just the beginning and I covered over 150kms on top of the 54km track in, was getting low on fuel and couldn't move around as much as I wanted to. To get to this gorge involved a 30km drive then a 2km walk then it was 70km to the next spot plus a 5km walk. If chasing good light much planning required and I wasted a lot of time being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Next time I'll have a plan!

definitely some magnificent scenery up there.

Thanks Stephen.

Red Rock country. Love it Mick.
How deep was the waterhole?

[loose cannon]

Not deep at all Todd, maybe a metre or so. Would love to see it after good rains but impossible to get anywhere near the place once the rains start. A few creek crossings along the way.

[Toddyh]

Yeah a hole deep enough to swim would be nice but I did think it looked shallow. Those are the little gems that dot the outback that make it so special.

[Isac]

Looks gorgeous Mick. I like the shot personally, so I would have to say, you didn't Bungle it as you may have thought.

[Sully]

Amazing place ..... shall put it on the bucket list. Thanks for posting Mick

[loose cannon]
