My son David and I explored both Uluru (Ayers Rock) and the Olgas. Uluru is as I remembered: “overwhelmingly beautiful”. The colour changes moment by moment and the views both closeup and from a distance beg the questions: “where did this come from, what caused this monolith”.
The interesting thing about this visit and last visit three years ago with Jill is our arrival followed heavy rainstorms and rain pours down its face and collects at the base. Very unusual to see this in a climate that barely gets 12 inches of rain a year. The Olgas are west of Uluru and are quite different in makeup from Uluru. Uluru gives the impression the rock is a single entity, a monolith and the Olgas are clearly a composite of gravel and bolders formed into huge bulbous masses. We hiked the Valley of the Winds trail and saw amazing sights. We have moved onto Kings Canyon for several days of exploring red rock.
