A trek through the east kimberley

Howdy folks!!  Its been a long time between writing anything in here I know, im not very good at getting things down sometimes!  But really wanted to share this with you all - I just got back from an incredible hike through the majestic and rugged East Kimberley region of Western Australia with 2 great mates of mine, and thought i'd share some of the photos from the trip with you.

We did about 50kms over 2 and half days from a little place called Harry's Hole, to the largest single drop waterfall in the Kimberley, and possibly WA, called Revolver Falls, and then onto the western shore of Lake Argyle, where we were picked up by boat and whisked back to Kununurra via Lake Argyle Resort.  It was an absolutely amazing time, with plenty of waterfalls, mountain ranges, swim throughs, up hills, down hills, sweeping vistas, gorges, red rocks, amazing views, you name it it was all there!  Accompanied by Benjamin Broadwith and River Raine we got through relatively unscathed (spinifex scars and scrapes and cuts from rocks and sticks dont count as war wounds in the Kimberley!) and mate it through safe and sound.  It really was a phenomenal time, one of those things where it is really hard to explain how majestic and wild the time actually was - camping out under the stars, carrying everything you need with you on your back, exploring places seen by only a lucky few in the whole history of time, in one of the most remote and unforgiving, yet beautiful parts of the world.

Check out the some of the photos below from the trip that I took - i'm not usually one for taking photos, but I felt this trip needed documenting!

And in other news, plenty of gigs coming up!!!  Check out the TOUR page for details of them - Adelaide Fringe Festival shows coming up, some in Kununurra, and then an EP launch tour that starts at the beginning of April.  So yes, a new CD is coming your way in the very near future!!  About time eh?

Catch you all very soon im sure, somewhere in this great land of Oz!
