Diebil Hills was our first destination. Recently reopened to visitors however it seems we were the first in a fairly long time. It took a long time to push through the scrub. The path runs into a river bed for a bit and we missed the turn off out of it, causing confusion for some time and a few unnecessary kilometers.
The track became more and more overgrown and at one point we lost and damaged one of our side mirrors on a thicker than expected tree.
The area was stunning though. Very rocky and green, though we didn’t see any water there at the time. The hills and rock faces were just something out of a movie.
We topped up water at Wanykuju (Well 18) and moved on to Lake Disappointment. I can understand why you’d be disappointed if you were looking for water but damn is this lake a stunning artefact. I’ve never seen a salt pan so perfectly covered, as if it had snowed. It just goes on and on.
