23 July 2006
Left at 5:20AM on the tour to the Bungle Bungles. It took 3 hours to drive 50km of tarred road and 53km of dirt road but we did stop for morning tea at Calico Springs along the way. After visiting the Visitor Centre we headed for Echidna Chasm which was spectacular for its narrow chasm and 300m vertical rock faces. After having lunch we headed for the Beehive Domes and Cathedral Gorge. The Cathedral Gorge winds through the Beehive Domes and ends in a huge rock chamber with walls up to 300m almost all round. The return home was another 3 hours with a stop for tea and to watch the sunset. We arrived back at Turkey Creek at 7:00PM for a good nights sleep.
