Wiluna to Mt Robinson WA

Was quite surprised that we had a quiet night in Wiluna, so we were up early to tackle the road through to Meekatharra. We had been told it was a 100klm of bad gravel, and advised not to take it. But rather than backtrack and add an extra 200 kms, we decided to chance it. Not a problem ! It was part gravel, part bitumen, and took us a little over an hour till we reached Meekatharra. Had a cooked breakfast in a nice park there.  From there it was up the Great Northern Hwy to Newman, an active mining town.   Still very hot and dry and temperatures of 38 plus each day.  We are now wanting to get to Karijini for a few days, before Chris starts work in Port Hedland next week. Longest day so far and almost nightfall, by the time we pulled up at a camp at Mt Robinson. Next day I took a couple of photos of our surrounds  and then we were off again.
