@ Cuppa great looking spot, looking at vegetation I'm going to say NSW
But never seen rock formation like that before, how long to hike to top???

[Cuppa]

Can't recall exactly how long..... have blanked it from my mind! Probably a couple of hours up & a bit less coming back down. (Seemed like much more at the time!).
Definitely worthwhile though, something everyone should do once..... when in that part of the country.

I reckon you must've missed my 'Go West' clue.

Still no help never seen that rock formation ever, but will put it on the "TO DO" list for sure,

DC9 was a big plane. This was a DC-3 which was much smaller

Most mates in aviation industry, when we saw that plane in '83 up Cape york
there was a long discussion over it. the conclusion being a commercial plane was gutted
and turned into a cargo aircraft for the war effort, thats how we saw it.

Ok here's one to keep us going. It will likely be a bit more difficult unless you've been there........ gotta have something to do whilst the forum is offline tonight so get googling.

The 4 pics are taken from the same walk/trail in a well known National Park. I want the name of the park AND the name of the 'walk'. I will confirm the name of the Park first when someone gets it.

Lost city over In the Bungle Bungles Dont think they are Bradshaw pics though.
Boat/ship would suggest early Dutch explorers

Edit I dont do walk

[Cuppa]

Nope, they are not Bradshaw paintings as far as I know (although do look a bit like them).
Does look 'lost city'ish', but it isn't.
Not in the Bungle Bungle (Purnululu National Park).
Not sure about early Dutch explorers you may possibly be right on that.

Manngarre Walk, Kakadu?

[Cuppa]

Very warm TPC, it is in Kakadu, but not Mangarre. Is that the one along the river close to the Border Store ? If so you are VERY warm.

Cuppa

[TPC]

What about Ubirr walk?
I have not been to Kakadu, have just done the Google cheat on this one.

[Petit caillou]

Hi TPC, i done the same as you and I think you are right, let's see what Cuppa will tell us about it.

Petit caillou.

[Cuppa]

Ooh you are both so close, not much more than a stone's throw away, but the wrong side of the Border Store.

:bananadancing:East Alligator River close to Bardedjilidji Sandstones ? :bananadancing:

[Cuppa]

I gotta give you that Little Stone. :)

The Bardejilidji Walk was one of those great unexpected surprises, something that most of the 3 day tour folk never get to see.

Votre tour mon ami

[Petit caillou]

Here is a fabulous place somewhere you have to find :

[Cuppa]

Too easy.
The Great Hall of the Bulls, Lascaux caves, near Montignac, Dordogne, France.

Have another go.

[Petit caillou]

certainly too easy,...

try this one :

[Cuppa]

Hmmm, is it also in France?
Does it have any connection to hang gliding?

[Petit caillou]

yes and you can do hang gliding from that place

[Cuppa]

Hmmm, I thought that might lead me somewhere, but I'm coming up with nothing at the moment.

Is it a hill that the Tour de France cyclists ride up?
If not how about a clue?

Cuppa

[Petit caillou]

yes, the Tour de France passed through here

Regards
Petit caillou.

[Cuppa]

Col de la Croix de Fer ?

[Petit caillou]

Not that place, same player shoot again.

[Cuppa]

Well I'm googled out, & not coming up with anything which looks remotely the same. :(
