Another "sensitive area" -1

Colong Stock Route, on the way to Yerranderie view map

This area has a sign announcing its sensitivity and prohibiting camping, as well as a strong steel
cable as a barrier in case you can't read. It is a magic place: a high flat rocky shelf extending
for a kilometre or so (I'm guessing) with moss patches on the moister bits and lichen patterns
on the drier bits. There are grooves in the rock formed and used by aborigines for sharpening
tools; with some imagination, you get a strong sense of their being here for thousands of years.
