Fri 1st April - Mount Thirsty

We rose at 6am (Perth time ... or at least we thought it was Perth time) to an overcast day.  After a pleasant but long day's drive, we arrived at Norseman.  We decided along the way that we would head down to Esperance, but make a detour beforehand to Kalgoorlie as we were so close.  It would require a bit of back-tracking, but we have plenty of time.

We stopped at Norseman long enough to get some groceries and drove a further 20kms north towards Kalgoorlie to a free camp called Mt Thirsty.  There were several other campers at the site and we all shared it with some pretty vicious March flies.  We were parked very close to the main rail line between Norseman and Kalgoorlie, but fortunately only heard two trains during the night.
