King Leopold Range

King Leopold Range, in Western Australia, flanks the Kimberley area and extends almost to Collier Bay in the northern part of the state. The highest peaks in the range include Mount Ord and Mount Broome. Mount Ord rises to 3,070 feet (936 meters above sea level), and Mount Broome rises to 3,040 feet (927 meters) above sea level. The Fitzroy River cuts through the range below Fitzroy Bluff. In 1879, Alexander Forrest explored the range, naming it after King Leopold II of Belgium.
