The Yeagarup Forest, lake and sand dunes in the D’Entrecasteaux National
Park are a site to behold. The dunes are the biggest land locked, mobile dunes
in Australia and move a couple of metres each year, inland. You are permitted
to drive over them and it provides beach access. A challenge we could not pass
up. We made it there and back without getting bogged, although the BT50, at
times, resembled a bulldozer. I also may have been a bit exuberant in my
attacking the dunes on the way in.

This lead to some lengthy discussions on my driving
prowess and detracted somewhat from the otherwise pleasant experience. Lost a
few brownie point I did, however, I took the critique on board and the return
journey was acceptable. We captured a fair bit on the Gopro and I must say the
footage provides a better perspective even if its upside down. (I forgot to
invert the camera image – more lost brownie points). From there it was on to
the Warren National Park and we followed Heartbreak trail through the park.
This is a very picturesque track and was a fitting end to the day. Tomorrow its
on the road again.
Glad to see the weather has improved for you and hopefully it will remain like that for a while.
