	Kimberley region of Western Australia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Kimberley is one of the nine regions of Western Australia, consisting of the local government areas of Broome, Derby-West Kimberley, Halls Creek and Wyndham-East Kimberley.
		It is located in the northern part of Western Australia, bordered on the west by the Indian Ocean, on the north by the Timor Sea, on the south by the Great Sandy and Tanami Deserts, and on the east by the Northern Territory.
		The Kimberley was one of the earliest settled parts of Australia, with the first arrivals landing about 20,000 years ago from the islands of what is now Indonesia.

	Great Sandy Desert - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		This vast region of Western Australia is sparsely populated, without significant settlements.
		Areas near the Kimberley do have an average exceeding 300 mm (12 in), but the rainfall is patchy with many drought years often ending in a monsoonal cloud mass or tropical cyclone.
		The range on the southern border near the Kimberley at Halls Creek is around 37 to 38 °C (99 to 100 °F), but this would be indicative of the low end of the range.
