28/6/11 Granite Gorge, Mareeba


Pulled into Granite Gorge C'van Park.  After setting up we decided to explore the gorge so we got a "mud  map" from the office and set off.  Unfortunately the weather deteriorated and it started to sprinkle.   The rocks became excessively slippery.  Gerd's backside was covered with scum and mud and I managed to slip right down into a crevice and ended up with my feet in the creek.  It was getting late and we were worried about being caught in the dark and having to spend a cold wet night under a rock.   Finally we managed to retrace our path and get back to a hot shower and dry clothes.
