Handrail Pool,
Weano Gorge,
Karijini National Park,
Pilbara,
Western Australia.
A refreshing spot for a swim.
On the RHS of those falls (out of the picture) is the handrail from which this pool is named. To get down into this area you must first negotiate your way down a very slippery rocky face aided only by hanging on to the handrail.
This is Emerald Pool, which is at the top of Vernal Falls along the Mist Trail in Yosemite National Park. We stopped here and ate peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. You can see Nevada Falls in the distance.
The hike past Vernal Falls up to this point is very steep and Kevin was pretty unhappy at this point, so we didn’t continue any further towards Nevada Falls.
