Where ever I may roam

I made the trip to Mount Magnet, stopping off at Payne’s Find and Mucea, as well as a few rest stops. Dalwallinu was good, in the morning I checked out the Old Well and Old School Sites along a walk trail. During the wildflower season (July – Sep) the trails would be colourful but it was still enjoyable.

Payne’s Find Gold Battery was closed, only conducting tours during the wild flower season, or by appointment. I haven’t been having much luck today as Mt Gibson was also closed due to aerial bating. It looked like there would be a good hike up it and great views of the surrounding area from the summit.

Mount Magnet has a few sights to see, including the Amphitheatre, The Caves as well as The Granites. I have already taken a trip down ‘Toursit Drv’. I was thinking about camping out there tonight but opted for the caravan park instead.

Tomorrow I’ll visit The Granites before shooting for Meekatharra and beyond. I’m going to give the Dalgaranga Metorite Crater a miss and opt for an extra day in Karijini. I’m hoping that there will be mobile (GSM) coverage in Newman so that I can touch base and make a few calls before spending 4 days in the gorges.
