The Land of the Sundowner

The last Gibb River Rd trip for the year is over and its been a hot one as it always is at this time of the year. But this comes with a few perks, warm nights, longer days, the odd thunderstorm and rain, and hours spent in the cool waters of the Kimberly gorges. As is often said up here, another gorgeous gorge.
The minimum temperature was a chilly 18 degrees one morning which had several of us in jumpers. We also had a full evening and half a night of rain, which cooled things down a little and forced us into close quarters under the kitchen tarponal, which with the help of an open esky quickly turned into party.Twenty four hours later the clouds were gone and we were on the limestone ridge up from our camp watching the sunset onto the Bungle Bungle Range. As I do little to no riding myself my highlights are often these Sun Downers, celebrating another stunning day in the bush.
