Getting to Jim Jim Falls

They always put waterfalls in stupid places so we had to bounce around in a four wheel drive for kilometres on end. Then we had to walk through the bush (including a patch of rainforest with huge carpentaria palms) and scramble over rocks. The rocks of the Arnhem escarpment towered overhead in the most awesome colours and shapes. There were crocodile traps baited with pig heads.
