Starting to move into Karri forestsSouth of Donnelly River VillageQuite a change from the Jarrah forests from the first half of my walkPlenty of wildflowers stillTom Road campsite, the only site retained from the old alignment of the Track and overlooks a permanent pool in the riverSome campsites have a good supply of wood providedThere were a lot of trees down over the track, and this one was just too hard to walk around so off with the backpack and climb overDonnelly River in full flowDonnelly RiverThe official half-way markMaking the most of a fallen tree, now a walkway over the riverSome handy work to make a seatBoarding House campsite that has just been extendedThe track is often quite narrow and windyAnother interesting bridgeFortunately I wasn't too tall to get under this obstacle, but I have got stuck under others when I have not allowed enough space for my backpackI've come to like bridges when it means keeping your feet dryKarri trees near Beavis campsiteCampsite looks a bit like a laundry with people trying to dry out clothesQuite common to have to negotiate fallen trees after a wet winterNot all paths look quite as good as this oneA Marri (on the left) and a Karri tree from the same baseThe advantage of walking following a very wet winter was that the rivers were flowing stronglyBeedleup FallsA great spot to read my Kindle and rest the bodyA bit hard to get all of a tree in a photo when only using a phone, but very majesticNot a bad spot for a campsite - BeedleupSomeone lost a load of apples - even though I hadn't eaten any fresh fruit for a week, I wasn't temptedOne of the better stilesThe wire on top helped reduce the chance of slipping off this bridgeNature sure looks goodBig Brook Dam near PembertonLefroy Brook near PembertonA pub meal in Pemberton for a changeSorting out my food for the next 9 day section
