    Great episode.
    For the folks watching who don't know the climate in this region, the average temperature in November is over 39 degrees Celsius, or 103 F. That's the average daily maximum. It often gets down to 27 degrees at night, meaning the average temperature, for both day and night, is about 32 C. It never gets much hotter than 46 degrees C, or 114 F.
    In mid winter, in June, the daily average maximum temp drops to a chilly 31 C (88 F), and at night it can get as cold as 9 degrees C, or 48 F.
    The number of rainy days expected in the five months between May and September is somewhere between 2 and 3, in total, with August seeing an average of none at all. There are a total of around 66 rainy days in the region each year, nearly all occurring between December and March.
    It's a proper show, the weather in the Kimberly.

    This is the way adventure videos should be made. Really, really good camera and drone footage, with actual discoveries for you and your viewers. And lastly, your background music is simply the best, as in all your videos. It always seems to match the mood. Truly an enjoyable viewing experience.

    Great episode, the rock art was just amazing. As I get older I feel a stronger connection with indigenous people and how they viewed the world and their connection with nature. I've found an arrowhead sitting on the ground and I am picking it up a thousand years later, seeing or touching something like that just has a profound effect on you, more than anything I have ever experienced in church.

    Absolutely amazing paintings! They do indeed tell a tale starting in Africa I think. How? When? I will upload my personal pics and exploration soon. I don't think they are more than 6000 years old if we are to measure by what we know is a fact. The accounts of Noah and the 1500 years before him are documented. What I have fits in exactly with that and a civilization in Australia. Your theories about the baobabs are spot on. I agree.

    Only recently discovered your channel. I think you guys and your content is unique and I think it’s refreshing to see something different from the more commonly known 4WD touring and exploring channels. Don’t get me wrong I enjoy watching 4WD vids but the way you guys do it from a boat and catch and cook is inspiring. No fancy meals cooked here unlike some other channels which somehow manage to make more extravagant meals using some exotic ingredients that I don’t even have in my pantry at home. The simplicity of your approach to these adventures is what’s so special. The hero of the vlog is the landscapes and the environment you explore. Thanks for filming and sharing it with us and allowing us all to get a glimpse of the beauty that is out there.
    I agree with how you described the beauty and spirit the indigenous people had when they occupied these areas for 10’s of thousands of years. It’s thought provoking and eye opening to realise how they lived harmoniously with the Earth for so long without doing any damage, the land and the animals on it were truly respected and treated the way it should be. Modern ‘civilisation’ and European Settlement on the other hand have shown no respect to our environment and have continually abused the planet for their own gain and profit. Modern man has been more focused on constantly trying to look for what they believe are better ways to live or build things. It’s unfortunate i think how the majority of people these days are mainly focused on outdoing one another, where someone’s self worth is based on accruing wealth and feeling the need to constantly buy ‘stuff’ in order to make them happy and content. Makes me wonder which culture truly is civilised. I’m starting to think the indigenous population were the civilised ones who lived basic, simple lives and only took out of the Earth what they needed. Food, shelter and water were the only requirements needed and it was sustainable. In the last 150yrs man has manage to virtually destroy the planet as we knew it. Wiping out animals, destroying the atmosphere and polluting the land and ocean. I hope it is not too late to reverse the damage and learn from our past mistakes before it’s not too late. Kinda says it all when the wealthiest man in history, Elon Musk, has a plan and is using his wealth to colonise another planet. Either he knows something we don’t and realises we have stuffed this planet up or he just wants to own more stuff, and what could be better than to own and colonise your very own planet. Especially an untouched one who’s minerals have not yet been discovered and mined. Wouldn’t make sense to use your wealth to try and make some changes to this planet and try to repair some of the damage we have done in the last 150 years. The human race it seems is doing it’s best impersonation of a virus just spreading and taking over and killing it’s host.
    Wow that quickly turned into a rant didn’t it…
    Anyways, keep up the good work and keep recording and sharing these magical untouched places with us so that in the future when it’s all destroyed we generations to come can look back and marvel at what our planet used to look like 😷
