Hi all. We find ourselves in the thick of the Grey Nomad migration in NW WA, and around the caravan park here in Kununurra the gossip is that it is extremely difficult to get a site in Broome.

With the recent tragic loss of another solo traveller in the outback, I'm wondering just how many GN's actually carry an EPIRB in their van, or a personal unit when exploring, fosicking, fishing etc. I'm hoping EVERYONE has one.
