Today we set off in the first group of cars to go to Kings Canyon. We travelled on a dirt road, it was a bit bumpy. Our first stop was at Goose Bluff (where a crater hit). Dad said you would have been a goose if you were there 142 million years ago.
When we got to Kings Canyon we went on a long 6.5km walk. It took us 2 hours. My legs were tired at the end. We saw ochre, bird poo, birds nests and vegetation e.g. trees, plants and of course the canyon. There were also a couple of helicopters taking people around the rim of the canyon.
We passed a couple of rangers who had just taken care of a 75 year old woman who didn’t bring any water with her on the walk and had dehydrated.
We headed back to the van park, had showers and then dinner. The shower block has a gate at the entrance – this is to keep the dingoes out and must be closed after your exit.
