So in late February 2024, I headed back to Perth, to complete the last 450kms of my Bibbulmun Track adventure. Most people say it is too early to start out on the track and with news outlets showing quite a few bush fires in West Australia, I was a bit concerned.

Gardner Hut

This hut must have been rebuilt due to fire damage, as it was not of wooden construction. I had seen these before, but thought it worthwhile showing a picture of one.

Maringup Lake

Beautiful Bottle Brush on the track

Lake Maringup to Dog Pool

This must be the section that floods

Lake Maringup to Dog Pool

Planks to walk on, suggest track goes under water in winter.

Lake Maringup to Dog Pool

First sign of sandy track. Track was bordered by lovely red bottle brush.

Dog Pool Hut

The pool outside the hut, must be great to have a cool dip and wash up after the track from Lake Maringup in winter.

Was it just me, or did this look like a hiker with a hiking pole. Am I starting to see things !!

Dog Pool to Mt Chance

Where have all the trees gone ?

The landscape had changed, now the track was sandy and windswept, but what views

Looking down to Mandalay Beach

Mandalay Beach

Mandalay Beach, what a lovely beach, just great

Mandalay Beach

Felt really good to be walking on the beach.

A Tingle Tree

Between Mt Clare Hut and Walpole

Crossing Irwin Inlet

Luckily a canoe was on the ground and I dragged it into the water. I put my backpack in the front of the canoe.

View across to eastern side.

I got the canoe into the water. You can see the green hut across the other side, where you have to paddle to. Not a long crossing, which after working out what to do, I really enjoyed.

The Canoe Hut on West side of Inlet.

Lifejackets, paddles and canoes all there ! Canoes are quite heavy and was lucky that one was on the ground.

Big Quarram Beach

View down the coastline. Quite spectacular

The whole beach to myself.

Stopped to have some lunch and enjoy the view
