Kata Tjuta

No crowds at Kata Tjuta, which is just amazing an amazing place. It was once much much bigger than Uluru, but looks like it's a different rock.

A conglomerate of rounded stones, like fabricated concrete, but between the stones seems to weather more easily. Now it is many very large rocks sticking up from the ground a couple of hundred metres. Kata Tjuta means many heads (Tjuta is many).

The view as you leave and approach is truly spectacular, huge. The chasms are grand. The patches of light green grass and dark green trees make you wonder how they climbed up and got there (more likely on the wind, or in bird poo). The trees look tiny on the scale of the rocks.
