| Municipal Inventory | Adopted | 20 Feb 1997 | ||
This survey was considered to be the last of the old style, using horses and donkeys for transport during exploration. The aims of the expedition were to seek potential grazing land in the Gibb River area, to find a suitable port site in Napier Broome Bay and to survey and cut a rough road from Gibb River Station to Kalumburu. A report of the Survey and Mapping Expedition is held in local historical society archives. In 1994 a memorial project of the 1954 expedition was taken on by Roy Hamilton. A plaque showing the aims, route taken and people involved was unveiled in a ceremony in the same year.
