East Kimberley 4wd Trip Western Australia

[hilux2.8]

Just got back from a 2 week patrol into the east kimberley in the north of Western Australia.

Drove the Gibb river road, visited elquestro station, lake argyle, Wyndham, Kununurra, numerous rivers & waterways, went croc spotting with the wildlife officers and saw some pretty awesome sights and all of it was work.

We took a work 6 cylinder cruiser ute which performed flaweless over the pretty nasty conditions we put it through.

Heres some photo's of the many i took

Cheers Matt

Gday mate,

sorry for the late reply...
got off-roading and then forgot.....
nice....
Yeah allterrain has been taken over though since I drove for them..
I used to drive the west coast and the Gibb river road..
I see u been there lol

I have heard from a mate who still drives there that is has become more and more commercial over the last 3 years, shame...

I used to love the area around Wyndham and also Kununurra but more even if u go a bit more off track...
also I love the Geikie Gorge area and the Fitzroy River.......

I miss WA a lot as they say there are only two states to be in WA and ####ed

wish I cud come home.... altho I am Dutch born WA is my home...

Nice piccy's, looks like a fantastic bit of country, when you say "2 weeks on patrol" are you in the forces/rescue/wildlife service?

I'd love to do sommat like that, at least once or twice a year.


PS: Love that first pic.

Work for The Dept of Fisheries as a Fisheries and Marine officer.

Part of my job is to patrol the communities, sea's, lakes, inland rivers & waterways of the remote North West of Western Australia.

We work in with other departments with such projects as croc tagging, illegal indonesian fishing / people smuggling patrols, turtle monitoring, native title projects and too many more to mention.

So part of my work involves getting paid to go to some pretty awesome spots by boat, 4wd, quad bikes, or by aircraft.

We get some great toys and have plenty of fun using them.

Cheers Matt
