We couldn't believe the change of weather after leaving Broome. Very strong easterly winds were relentless and freezing! They were like the east coast westerly winds in August.
Hence, despite the beautiful views the grimace on the faces and big cuddles in the first photo.

The walks/climbs were interesting and varied. They rate the walks 1 to 6 according to the WA scale.
1 is easy 3 moderate 4 is difficult and 6 needs abseiling gear.

The walks were often very challenging but the scenery at the end was stunning and well worth the effort.
