Mary's Pool

We said our goodbyes to Mum and Dad and the dirt roads for a little while and are now travelling along the smooth bitumen road of the Great Northern Highway to Mary's Pool. 

Mary's Pool is between Halls Creek and Fitzroy Crossing. It is a free camp and is pretty busy with caravanners. The river where we camped above has freshwater crocs, and although you can swim with them, we decided not to.

Camping is behind the embankment on the right hand side.

It is a nice 24hr stopover camping amongst the Eucalyptus, and bins and compost toilets are provided. Although, because it is free people have left the toilets in an undesirable way and the hum of the generators seem to spoil this serene peaceful place. It's a shame that people don't understand the ease of camping without the need of 240volt power.

We cooked pizza in our baby Weber Q and after heating the pizza stone, the pizza is ready in 15mins. Great for leftovers.
