Head of King’s Canyon

Bit of a sleep in this morning to allow the canvas to dry prior to packing up – plan failed due to a thick fog that rolled in from 6 until 9, making everything even more drippy and wet .

Nice 3 hour -ish drive to Watarrka National Park , set up Bernie and then headed out to King’s Canyon. Arrived just too late to do the Canyon Rim walk ( 4pm cut off ) so that’s tomorrow morning’s fun. Nice little walk up the centre of the canyon instead – massive amounts of bird life ( lots of budgies) , ghost gums , red rock and and deep blue sky.

Back to watch an amazing sunset over the range and a full-ish moon rising.
