Zebra Rock Mine and Keep River NP
Only
short drive west for a one night stay at Zebra Rock Mine. A little off the main
track but a nice campsite. The boys picked up some more rocks for us to
bring home. Not sure how we will carry them all!! This is the only location in the world you
can find Zebra Rock..so they say. Anyway, it was a nice overnight and only a
short 30km to our next camp at Keep River National Park. Now I’m feeling like the grey nomads, pulling up
at midday. Found a shady site which we needed as the day’s were really hot,
up to 35 one day. In the middle of the camping area was a large rock formation
which was used extensively as a climbing wall. (until Toby fell on the last
day) Did both the walks here, leaving very early for the 8k as it was 35 again. So
sat around camp in the afternoon. We seem to have many groups come over and
talk to us, not sure if it’s the smell of hot bread Susan’s just baked, me
strolling around without my shirt off, or the boy’s sitting quietly doing their
homework. On the baking. We celebrated Lachlans 7th Birthday with a
freshly baked cake out of the camp oven
(getting quite proficient now,
only burnt 1 x bread and 1 x upside down cake) and a bottle of lemonade. What a
treat.
