Out Bush ,West New South Wales

THE PERRY SAND HILLS near Wentworth, they date back to an Ice Age approximately 40,000 years ago. The land surrounding here is dry and scrubby and then you have all these red ochre sand hills, the colours reminiscent of driving up through the centre.
THE WALLS OF CHINA Mungo National Park that is part of the Willandra Lakes Region World Heritage Area. The walls are the old foreshore of Lake Mungo one of the lakes in the area that dried out 17,000-18,000 years ago - remember it well!
LAKE MUNGO remnants of the lake floor. Once you turn off the highway there is a 110km drive into the park with 88kms of that being dirt road. We saw a few emus and when out walking around the Walls of China there must of been a million flies buzzing around, I wore my very fashionable fly net, no good worrying about how you look when you don't know anyone else there.
