Took a trip out of Perth to the Pinnacles desert today. The Pinnacles desert is about 150 miles North of Perth and is a desert full of strange upright rock pinnacles. There is a geological explanation as to how they formed but its quite complicated and I wasn’t really listening properly….
Next we took the 4WD drive truck into the white Sand Dunes along the coast and had a go at Sand boarding…going down was easier than getting back up again. Also there was a bit of a breeze that meant we were continuously getting sand blasted..
After the sand boarding the idea was to take the 4WD drive up and over some of the dunes. This was great fun until we drove up a massive dune that turned out to have a much softer crest than the driver expected….We got completely beached and then weren’t going anywhere! The driver got the spade out but luckily another 4WD vehicle gave us a tow out. I helped by taking pictures…In then end it took about 30 mins to get the truck out.
