Kimberley Part 4- East Gibb River Rd | Ellenbrae | Pentacost Free Camp | Home Valley | El Questro

This episode shows the highs and the odd low when travelling full-time. In this episode, we hit the HARD sections of the Gibb River Road and the ‪@jawacampertrailers4342‬ Commander just loves all we give to her! Checkout some of the footage of the rocky sections around Ellenbrae Station!! We document all of the campsites to give you all a view of what they are like. 3 of the 4 stops in this video are camps we haven't been to before, so it was awesome just to experience new places that were closed post borders reopening.
In this video, we again had the privilege of taking a chopper flight into more remote areas around ‪@ElQuestroWP‬ . Our ‪@helispirit1916‬ pilot Maxie did an amazing job of showing us around the Lost City and Miri Miri Falls. The sight of the soaring Coburn Ranges on dusk, the sun smashing the rugged rock faces, and the most sacred and tranquil spots are an experience we will never forget!

As a Vet, thank your Son for his Service.

[@leonwakefield7285]

Best video yet guys,loved every minute of it.😊

[@annapietroniro-widdeson4973]

A great episode guys well done to your you, fella hugs for Dee 🥰

[@neilwelsford3578]

Another cracking episode guys

[@maxifisher9571]

What a pleasure it was getting to meet and fly with you guys. All the best on the rest of your trip! Cheers - Maxi

[@stephenmurfit800]

I'm an Army Vet, Mavo. Be proud of your son. It's what he wanted to do. It can be a rewarding career, but like Aldi, good different.

[@wendymarsh4715]

Great episode. We always use our max trax to level up. Can use multiple stacked and gives a nice balanced level for our hybrid van.

[@ThisVagabondLife]

What a wonderful capture of the GRR experience. Have just completed it coming the other way, so got the hard bit over first. Well done on getting all the way through on El Questro gorge!

[@tonyfoxd4868]

WoW WoW WoW One of the best videos yet! I have a morbid fear of heights but was convinced to do a Glacier Helicopter tour in Alaska recently and was shocked at how smooth and safe it felt so this Lost City heli tour now added to our bucket list. And of course we’ll be doing all in our Commander as well 🦊

[@empty_nestadventures]

@@tonyfoxd4868 thanks Tony! It was an awesome experience and felt very safe

[@AussieDazza]

I served in the RAAF for 9.5 Years, Airframe fitter/ Aircraft technician on the F111 , joined at 18. The military is a great career.

[@warrencramer4516]

That camping by the pentecost looks absolutely sublime...

[@empty_nestadventures]

@@warrencramer4516 yep, wish we had longer as we got a primo site… next time we do the GRR, we’ll stay here instead of ELQ

[@garybeauchamp9975]

Hi Ant and Dee, this is the best video! Loved watching it and you guys. Hope Dee is ok? We both got upset when she did. Beautiful. Gary and Terrena from Exmouth. Keep them coming mate

[@empty_nestadventures]

@@garybeauchamp9975 I’m good thanks Gary and Terrena, just having a little moment … Home sick, over the corrugation and the unsettling feeling of your child heading into the army just got to me. Our son has the kindest heart and I just don’t want him to change physically and mentally for the worst, if that makes sense. Glad you both enjoyed this one ☺️

[@highvibe4839]

This was a magical video in so many ways, the shear beauty of the palms growing in the rocky gorges, to the green frogs and waterfalls, spectacular chopper ride. What a roller coaster ride of emotions for you both, keeping calm at all times, tears are a release dee and honestly refreshing to see - travel effects us in various ways when your not in your permanent home habitat. That Gibb River Road is something else, and best wishes for your son now in the Military. 🇦🇺🥂

[@robertarmbruster5650]

You two are doing a great job, thanks for sharing. What are those fish, maybe sooty grunters? Our two sons were in the forces, Matty an ADGE and Joe in the army, then they joined the cops. I take it from the little upset you may have missed the march out parade - don't worry, it's all good.

[@michelleroberts9721]

Great video guys. I loved all your videos but this was up there as one of the best. Loved the camping by the Pentecost River and the helicopter flight was amazing. How beautiful to see the falls from above. I also cried when you cried Dee. Could feel your anxiety and the sadness from not being with your son at that special time in his life but you were there in spirit. I really enjoyed all your amazing drone footage too. We live in a beautiful country.

[@empty_nestadventures]

@@michelleroberts9721 Thanks Michelle, always love your support and feedback ☺️ I’m such a sook and still got teary watching that again when I made the vid lol 😂

[@peterwest5661]

Mavo the river crossing queen! Ant you didnt look interested.

[@empty_nestadventures]

@@peterwest5661 lol, thank Peter! He was busy flying the drone

[@briangill4000]

Good,sensible driving Ant. The horror stories of the GRR are mostly people driving way too fast. Sometimes shear bad luck can come into it as well, but speed kills suspension and tyres.

[@briangill4000]

Yippee, another episode

[@JourneyUnknown]

Great episode guys! We can so relate to you both. Just wondering what time of year did you complete the Gibb and would you suggest travelling west to east or east to west? Thanks, Troy & Laura

[@empty_nestadventures]

@@JourneyUnknown cheers guys. We’ve done it twice and hit the Gibb on 1 June each time, west to east…. Main reason is timing with places like Exmouth (whale shark season) and Broome, plus not school holidays. Southern WA in Jan/Feb and then slowly up to leave Broome at the end of May

[@briangill4000]

17:04. Well done to your young fella.

[@empty_nestadventures]

@@briangill4000 thanks mate. He’s a good young man

[@briangill4000]

When we did the Canning, an idiot passed us doing 100kph.. the next day at Durba Springs, we heard stories of a guy trying to beg or buy some new shocks..😂🤣😂🤣

[@empty_nestadventures]

@@briangill4000 yep. Just not worth the rush!

[@fourbysolo]

Did you book in with a chiropractor after those corrugations yet? Another great video Dee, thanks for sharing. The inserts on the video work really well.

[@empty_nestadventures]

@@fourbysolo thanks heaps for the feedback! Yeah the chiro makes heaps out of us when get back home!

[@stephenhorton119]

It would be easier just to dig a hole for the van to level it

[@alisonphilp7497]

Great episode guys awsome footage what’s the chopper ride cost out there ❤️🇦🇺🤙🙏

[@empty_nestadventures]

@@alisonphilp7497 thanks Alison, it was an awesome experience

[@davedave5457]
