Greetings!

This post will recap the hikes and experiences that occurred on Tuesday and Wednesday.  With no wifi at the Bungle Bungles, but the most delightful campside accommodations, we flew in a helicopter over and walked through some of the most awe-inspiring rock canyons imaginable.

Back at the Savannah Lodge, we spent more time in a pool than we have in a long time.  The water was 75 degrees (fahrenheit), and it made the 100+ air temperature just tolerable. 

The gorges we're hiking are eroded 350 million year-old limestone reefs which have eroded down colorful cracks into high walls of alternating layers of porous rock.   While walking on conglomerate boulders is often a real balancing challenge for old legs, the resulting scenes are beautiful.  

I want to let Steve and others know that the food where we are staying is superior.  The staff within Outback Spirit locations is often imported from Micronesian resorts badly impacted by the Virus.  Fiji and Vanuatu crews have been employed, and have brought their ingredients and skills to the table.  My usual evaluation of breakfast's scrambled eggs, croissants, and orange juice is placed our camps among the highest, except for the lack of ketchup (anti-sugar nutritionists abound).
