Cape to Cape Walk, Day 3
Blackboy Hollow Cave Road to Margaret River Mouth, 8km
We make the decision not to cover the full distance from Redgate Beach to Margaret River Mouth. With the help of our official maps and Google, we discover where we can access the track by car and we find it at Blackboy Hollow, where we drive nearly 2km on an limestone compacted road.
But first, an update on the found-key story.
When we started from Cape Leeuwin Lighthouse, and some 7km into our walk, we found a set of car keys. Quick thinking led us to scratch a message on the sand: Key found, heading to H.B. Hol. Park. Call [mob. #]. The next morning we got a call thanking us. At the holiday park reception, the owner was reunited with her key. By performing a good Samaritan act, we could have earned karma points and our Day 1 walk happened without mishap.
But today, it's a beautiful and short walk, through Rottnest tea trees, peppermint and magnificent karri.
We arrive at the river mouth in early afternoon. It's crossable!
