Just out of Home Valley Station was the supposed only Telstra reception of the whole Gibb River road. Also happened to be a really great lookout! We spent some time paying bills before setting off.
The road was more rocky than corrugated, and not too bad. The worst road was probably that of the turn off to Ellenbrae Station where we had a nice lunch of excellent scones with jam and cream, along with mango smoothies. So good we all had to get seconds.
We decided to go on a bit further and found a free camp site where we were all alone. The kids found some junk people had left, an old caravan awning etc. and busied themselves making a bridge between two gravel piles, before we had a fire under the stars.
