More rocks

STANDLEY CHASM Yes, more rocks, the Northern Territory sure does have a lot of them. You walk up the river bed to the chasm and feel like you could walk forever scrambling over the rocks, the shapes and heights are amazing.
STANDLEY CHASM being in the lower section at midday you get to see both sides of the narrow gap lit with sunlight.
SIMPSONS GAP This gap in the ranges is at the end of the river bed and today there was this small water hole. Further upstream on a very dry river bed there is a sign 'no swimming' , don't know how often you would get to swim there. The rocky walls are home to bush wallaby's.
RIVER BED - SIMPSONS GAP
SIMPSONS GAP - me with some of the rocks at the base of the ranges to give you an idea of the size of them.
