The Helena and Aurora Range (Aboriginal name 'Bungalbin') is a magnificent banded ironstone formation (BIF) range about 100km north of Southern Cross.

We will be bush camping at the base of the ranges and there are no facilities nearby. Sunday we will go exploring around the area, returning to Perth on Monday perhaps via Beacon and some interesting isolated bush land reserves.

The trip subject to weather conditions as this area turns to mud after rain. An alternative trip will run if this happens, same type of camping trip, just different direction.

Due to COVID-19 restrictions numbers will be limited to 20 people.

Social distancing and health precautions are required to be followed.

Having now retired, I plan to use some of my “spare time” (9 days) to go and explore Mt Augustus (the world’s largest monocline) and the east side of the Kennedy Ranges which are situated in WA’s Gascoyne area. How about joining me? The trip would involve plenty of driving on dirt roads, camping in various places (8 nights) and generally poking around the bush. The trip will be suitable for Forester’s, Outback’s and XV’s.

THIS TRIP IS NOW FULL. YOU MAY BE ABLE TO GO IF THERE ARE CANCELLATIONS - PLEASE CONTACT  IAN OR NINA ASAP.   If you are unable yo go, please let us know so that others might like to attend.

ON 22/23 AUGUST.

This is primarily a wildflower day trip through Jarrahdale and Mundaring State Forests sprinkled with history and an option to overnight at York (D.I.Y. own booking). It’s a beautiful area, and in spring a blaze of colourful wildflowers with much popping in and out of the car to admire.

Optional overnight at York (please D.I.Y. booking), back next day.
