The Richardson's Adventures

Our holiday to Western Australia was initiated from the idea of taking our boys on a extended holiday prior to starting school. We have been camping in tent's, and more recently we had a camper trailer for 3 years. While the camper trailer served us well ( over 30 camping trips ), we have upgraded to our off road caravan. The caravan makes life easier for the overnight stay, quick pack up, and it also has air conditioning. Our holidays have been booked for 2 1/2 years and we have been planning in some sort of fashion since. We have upgraded the car to give hassle free motoring, not to mention the great V8 rumble.

El Questro

Stepping stones to Zebedee Springs
We left HV8 and travelled back into El Questro Wilderness Park (a million acre property).  We checked out Zebedee Springs which closes each day at 12:30 for preservation of the vegetation.

Pigeon Hole Lookout
This lookout was closing after 12:00 noon for a wedding in the afternoon.  The bride flew out from El Questro Station in a helicopter.  The boys have done some huge walks the last few days so we did a big afternoon 4WDing.  Which has been Steven's most challenging 4WDs to date.



Branco's Crossing
This made the Pentecost Crossing look easy.  The photo only showed the first half of the crossing, what looks like the end in the photo, is only and island part to the crossing and the same distance covers the other side.
