History

In 1984 on a camping trip, we spent a night at Wilpena Pound, South Australia. We rose early and watched the spectacular sunrise. A truly memorable experience. The sun exploded over the horizon, creeping across the landscape, seeping into every nook and cranny; the colours changed and the environment re-established itself with the coming of the day.
