Climb closed at 8am
Uluru - Kapi Mutitijulu area
Uluru - Kapi Mutitijulu waterhole
Uluru - Kapi Mutitijulu waterhole (wearing all clothers we had handy - chilly at this time of the morning!)
Uluru - Mala Walk - this is where an enraged giant Eagle is said to have crashed its foot into the rock
Picnic spot by start of climb - will it / won't it open at 12 noon?
Clim open. taking a breather on the way to the top. Picture does not convey steepness! (only Hopkinsons ventured this far at this point of the day!)
At the top - view behind 30km of flat floodplain then The Olgas
View over the other side -more flat, flat land
The weather eroded undulating top of Uluru
E, J & K at the trig point (Olgas in background). Now wishing we had shorts on!
Joseph at top
Well earned water break
The steep descent - some parts best done backwards holding onto the chain for dear life!
Last view of Uluru on departure
Answers on a postcard: How many camels in this picture?
