E16 | The Big Lap of WA - 4x4ing Up WA's BIGGEST Mountain (Mt Meharry) and Karijini National Park

This episode we leave the caravan at a free camp and we go 4x4ing up Western Australia's tallest mountain - Mt Meharry. We then head into Karijini National Park where we stay for 4 nights to hike into a few gorges we've never been to before.
Next week we head into the coastal towns of Port Samson and Karratha to catch up with a few old mates, we explore the historic ghost town of Cossack and fish the beaches at 40 mile.
Cheers,
Cam, Tiff and Chloe,

    Awesome! We did it last month. Aired down to 18psi. Drove 90% open, about 9% rear locked, and flicked the front on twice (to go up and down that step you repositioned for - looks like you got unlucky with your wheel placement). Watching you do that made me nervous because I remember it being pretty off camber. It's a committing, slippery climb. Funnily enough - my partner also offered to get out and film me quite often :) Her watch said her heart rate was higher sitting in the passenger seat doing this climb than it did hiking through gorges. Drone shots were great too. Disappointed I didn't get mine in the air, so I'm claiming yours. Sorry. :)

Can't really speak for other brands, looked at a few that had dealerships here and noticed that quality wasn't really on the same level. MDC seem to be pretty motivated to constantly improve there product- and the latest hybrids are testiment to that. Also liked that MDC had dealers all around aus.
