Day 4 - Gibb River Road

I love road signs.
The Gibb River Road is 660km long road and links Derby in the west to the Great Northern Highway (Highway 1) in the east not far from Wyndham and Kunnanurra. It is usually flooded and impassable between November and March. In the centre photo on the left, it is the dotted line cutting through the heart of the Kimberley.
In the mid 2000s, the road was upgraded from a dirt track to a formed road - a couple of small sections are now even sealed!!!!
We were travelling from the Derby end and it will take over a week to reach Kunnanurra.
Don't bother to comment. Just setting the scene.

I love these signs too and when ever I come across them, I read them and take a picture!! It helps when I get home to go back to remember the places I visited. Nice capture!

Interesting to keep a record of roads well travelled :)

It's all so vast Terry -what a fantastic journey! All the journeys I have been on pale besides this.

Nice shot Terry.They had a tv program about trucking and they had a program where they were carting something rather oversize into El questro (from memory) and it was quite a challenge.

Great capture of the interesting outback maps. 300 for the next fuel. Hope you filled up!!

My husband was always after me to take pictures of signs when we were in a new area.
