157. Derby, Geike Gorge

BEAUTIFUL



Three very lovely women.




GEIKE GORGE NP


Not far from Fitzroy Crossing in almost the middle of nowhere is Geike Gorge. The surrounding district is relatively flat floodplains, then abruptly appears this mighty gorge that feeds the Fitzroy River.




WE TAKE TO THE WATER


We couldn’t have a more beautiful day to drop the tinny in & explore the gorge. The flood waters had now eased in their ferocity & the park reopened to the public. The tourist boats were not scheduled to begin work until the following week & so we had ten kilometres of gorge country to ourselves.
