Bungle Bungle

We leave El Questro and continue 200km south and a further 80km on a really rough track. 

Warning signs to 'engage 4wd NOW' are a stark warning for the really rough pounding we are about to receive, 

Averaging 20mph we eventually arrived at the spectacular sandstone pinnacles and the gorge we intended to walk. 

Greeted almost immediately by a group who had retreated from the 50C+ temperature in the gorge we decided just to take pictures and that discretion was the best course of action. 

The road back was just as bumpy and hot!

the road to the main range was very long, hot and incredibly rough.  We averaged 20mph and felt that we were 'pushing it'

We are racing to avoid the dark as the sun sets...but it's been a great day with some spectacular scenery.
