The Bungle Bungles, Lake Argyle and the surrounding mountain ranges are stunning and awe inspiring sights. We decided that the best way to see as much as possible of this area was to fly over it. We purchased some seats on an Alligator Airways Cessna 207 and away we went. The area around Kununurra is renowned as a market garden area, producing all sorts of crops. The view from the moment of takeoff was ever-changing and absolutely riveting. The landscape changed from manicured plantations of sandlewood trees and market gardens to the rugged beauty of the natural landscape, to Lake Argyle, to Bungle Bungles, Carr Boyd Ranges, Argyle Diamond Mine and back to the patchwork quilt of the gardens of Kununurra before landing back at Kununurra Airfield.
I have put up a sample of the photos of the flight, but I don't think that they do justice to the stark beauty of the areas. The Bungle Bungles are just so fantastic, we have to come here again and look at them up close, on the ground.
As always, the pics of our adventures are here. Feel free to comment, as we welcome comments on the blog or on Picasa.
We are at Fitzroy Crossing for the next three days, so more pics to follow.
Bye for now.
John and Maureen
