Переглядів 182Місяць тому

Summit Hike Mt Augustus
Переглядів 942 місяці тому
Mt Augustus is the largest rock in the World, much bigger than Uluru, which is the bigger monolith of Australia. I am confused! In any case, Mt Augustus is definitely bigger. The hike to the summit is a 12.8 Km return with an elevation gain of about 650m. On the return leg, I took the Gully trail half way down, that turned out to be a really slow going trail as it is very rocky, and some search...

This time, with Sandi the truck camper, I decided to go slower, and took in the scenery slowly, and there were many surprises, not on...

On my 5th Lap around Australia, this marks the beginning of my odyssey of the Great Australian Bight, hugging mostly along the coast to the western point.

The weather forecast for the day was "PERFECT", promising a calm, sunny and dry day....let the video tell the true reality.... As the ridge became very muddy and sl...
