Cape York Trip – Post 14

Lakefield to Coen

 

 

"Clifford" at the "old" Lakefield National Park ranger station. I don't think this windmill gets used to pump water. The reason we stopped here was to get a shot of the two Brolgas. As well as not having a long enough lens I was also way too slow getting my camera out. Should just use my phone 🙂

 

Red Lilly lake

 

 

On the way out the road goes past White and Red Lilly lakes. This is one of the red lilly blooms at the Red Lilly lake. The lillies are a type of lotus.

Lakefield to Musgrave and then Coen

 

 

After Hann crossing the road out to  Musgrave deteriorated with sections of large corrugations. I was thinking just wait until we get to Musgrave and the Peninsular Development Road and things will improve. Sadly this was not the case. Yes the road was wider but the corrugations were about the same:-(

 

Still we were rewarded by this campsite just north of Coen. This was the view almost from the door - and it was free.
