WESTERN AUSTRALA : DAY 2 : CAPE TO CAPE WALK - Wyadup Road - Gracetown - 26 km - 8 hours

DAY 2 : CAPE TO CAPE WALK - Wyadup Road - Gracetown - 26 km - 8 hours

Heavy rain  overnight which continued throughout the day.

Our destination was Gracetown today.

Storm clouds, rougher seas and continuing on the earthen track though scrub.

Granite outcrops

Stairway south of Biljedup Brook

Relief to discover the correct path.

Just before this we were lost in sand dunes in pelting rain but were rescued by a

fellow bush bashing in his 4WD checking fire trails. For a fleeting moment I thought we might ask him to drive us to our car... but bravado prevailed.

Crossing one of the river mouths. At first glance an easy exercise but rogue waves thwarted us.

8 hours walking in the rain and we arrived in the sleepy seaside hollow of Gracetown to climb around the granite point as light was fading.
