The Mitchell Plateau is situated in the far north of Western Australia. It is a remote and awe inspiring area. Access is either by air or road although it is possible to access certain rivers from the sea. The rocks are of the Proterozoic Age and consist of Carson Volcanics over King Leopold Sandstone. Varying in height from 430 metres at the Southern End it drops to about 290metres at the Northern end. The plateau is rugged and split up by narrow and deep gorges. Numerous waterfalls and waterholes can be found over the plateau (right). The rare Livingstonia palm (right) can be seen on the Plateau. Grey Box and Paperbark trees can be seen, the latter along waterways. Pandanus palms are also seen along waterbanks. The leaves of this plant are covered in sharp prickles, it is advised not to grab hold of them. The birdlife is abundant. Brolga (Native Companions) occur in pairs, and if lucky, you may see their graceful dance (right). Sea-Eagles, Kites, Herons, Pittas and some Rainbow Bee-eaters are other birds often seen, a good pair of binoculars and a camera are essential equipment in this area. Small nocturnal mammals may be heard rather than seen around your camp at night. A small Rock-wallaby (Warabi) is endemic to the Kimberley.
