the heat of the day and to
keep in mind that to date a
dozen enthusiasts have died
in their endeavor to reach the
summit.

For thousands of years,
caves around the monolith’s
eight kilometre base provided
much needed shelter for
nomadic Aborigines and
paintings therein tell of their
fascinating past.

Of course, one of the most
popular pastimes is

photographing the Rock ot

sunrise and sunset when t
rays of the sun are jow
enough to reflect the iran ox-
ides on its surface. From the
brooding blackness at first
light, to the, life-bursting
orange glow sunset, the
Rock takes on a life of its
own.

THIS SLEEPY-EYED Koala bear is one of the native bears
of Australia. The tailless arboreal marsupial has a thick, soft
mass of fur that might make you want to hug one if you saw
one. But don’t. Although they are cute and cuddly, they may
not be immediately friendly.

And this well constructed Ight weight back
pack can be packaged up to become this much
_ smaller hip pack.

... great for both the long and short trips

colors, S 95
