Due to heavy rainfall, we thought it would be difficult to get to Elliot Falls (via the Old Telegraph Track) but it may be even more difficult to get out in the morning. Disappointingly we drove straight to Bamaga to find alternate accommodation. Driving in heavy rain proved challenging and tiring with 3 stops at a crest in a section of the road when we felt it was not safe to travel on.
Not surprisingly for this time of year there was very little accommodation available. We ended up staying in a donga at Loyalty Beach caravan park so as to avoid the forecast overnight rain.
