Tuesday 16th July 2013 – Kununurra to Keep River National Park

Packed up and on the road this morning heading east to the Western Australia/Northern Territory border to Keep River National Park.  Just before the border we called into the quarantine station to register the fact that we would only be in the Northern Territory for two days before returning.  By doing that we will not have to forfeit all our fruit and vegetables as we recross the border.

Just after the border we turned north off the highway for the 30km drive to Jarnem camping area.  There are two camping areas Jarnem is the one without generators.  We called into the Information Centre on the way – quite informative.

Set up camp in the camping area – quite dry, very hot (35 degrees) but fortunately quite a bit of shade.  After lunch we had a nice restful afternoon gearing up for a 7km walk early tomorrow morning.
