I have just spent the weekend in the company of the Alice Bushwalkers Group,
hiking for miles at Kings Canyon , one of the most beautiful places on earth. So I have been part of the other invasion, tourism, and just to remind me there were helicopters every half-hour or so above the canyon: the war continues. 
And it took us five hours of evil earth-destroying fuel-guzzling road travel to get there. We walked 22 k along the Giles track on Sunday and avoided the helicopters and saw some of the most spectacular and exhilarating country
...walking the dotted line as Lisa calls it, following the markers - but it was so beautiful.
And so exhausting, good healthy workout for the body/mind. My broken foot reminded me ligaments taken a long time to heal but all was well after a day or two. 
...these pictures are worth a thousand words, apologies to those on dial-up. Click on a picture to see it bigger...
This is ancient rock, but the climate is doing the same to my skin... o to be a duck in paradise!
