Mini Palms and Echidnas

A big day walking the northern tracks at Purnululu. The Mini Palms walk involved scrambling over gorge boulders to a huge canyon with...palms. then along the rather exposed Escarpment track to Echida Chasm. This is a big hitter which is best to align with the sun between 11 and 12 Indiana Jones-like. We did that and it was great. Note the huge scale in the photos re: people for scale. There are lots of wildflowers in WA - of all colors - which is much more colorful than expected. Ended the day at a different sunset spot. The little tufts of grass are everywhere and handsome in most light.

    Great shots as expected! I think that the look from the air would be well worthwhile as the natural shapes and striations really show up. Cheers.

    His Steve and Marion, this is my favourite spot so far - eerily prehistoric. Stay safe.
