The Flinders Ranges

"That is Sneffels—a mountain about five thousand feet in height, one of the most remarkable in the whole island, and certainly doomed to be the most celebrated in the world, for through its crater we shall reach the centre of the earth."

We proceeded on to the Flinders Ranges. Our days had turned grey, leeching most of the colour out of the ranges. We managed some good walks into the pound, along a Red Gum lined gorge, and up to an aboriginal rock painting site. We had a paid sunset tour where we shivered on a windswept exposed site drinking sparkling shiraz and eating Kangaroo while spotting Euros and big reds.
