Managed to leave Mount Elizabeth Station at 7.50 and arrived at Mount Barnett by 9.30. They had a reasonable store and also diesel and drinking water.
Got to site by 10 and then we went on to Manning Gorge, which was an hour walk and a boat crossing at the start of the walk, where you pulled yourself across in a tinnie, which the kids loved.
The gorge itself was very enjoyable with deep water and cliffs to jump off. Robbie and Estella finally summoning up the courage to launch themselves off the 8m platform. Good on them. Dad decided he didn’t need to prove himself.
Really busy campsite, but now fully on the mainstream tourist trail.
