We spent an amazing week visiting Yalara for my husbands 50th. After visiting Uluru a few times and then coming out for the walks here we were actually more impressed by Kata Tjuta, there is something amazingly special about this place. We don't regret the 4am starts and totally understand why they close the walk at 11am due to heat as the heated breeze hits you in the face as you enter, It's a surreal feeling. Answers sent to COThank you for this earth cache Sissifalke. Favourite point given for a place I will never forget.

The end of a long hard day before we move on to a Brisbanevto Cairns road trip tomorrow. Sunrise and a cycle ride around Uluru followed by visiting the 2 Gorges at Kata Tjuta. Needless to say this, the last visit of the day followed by another disappointing sunset was not the full walk, but as much of it as could be fitted in our time schedule. Many thanks for placing.

Did the full circuit of Valley of the Winds this morning - from 1030 to 1315. It was still cool and breezy when we set out but 29 deg and bug riddled by the time we finished.We did the loop counter-clockwise, so we descended the steepest part. Didnt see much wildlife - just locusts, a few finches, ants and maybe heard a kookaburra. Saw absolutely no lizards. Stunning landscapes. Reminds me of the desert southwest in the USA or the savanna grasslands you see on safari. Also, lots of unexpected vegetation, some of which had a sweet almost basil or rosemary smell. And I was surprised to see the desert oak with leaves that look more like needles.Answers sent. TFTC

Brad and Janet are on an epic 6 week trip aiming to travel along the Canning Stock Route, the longest stock route in the world. 51 wells and crossing 4 deserts. We are traveling with a group of 11 vehicles on a tour led by Ron and Trent Moon. We have the geomobile towing the mini-geohouse on wheels. We have a couple of caches to put out if we find a good spot. We will grab what we can as we pass. We have finished the CSR part of the trip and are now headed home via Meekatharra, Sandstone, Leinster, Leonora, Laverton and the Great Central Road and Surveyor Generals Corner then across to the Stuart Highway. We started the Outback Way geocache trail in 2013. Slowly adding as we revisit from time to time. Hopefully we can add some more. We stopped at Kata Tjuta yet again. Always a great place to visit.

Freddo sent Sallymander to Uluru and told her to find an earthcache. Earthscience answers submitted to the cache owner for approval. Amazing location. Thanks for the wonderful geology lesson.I will apologize right now, because everything from here on is here solely for the purpose of padding the word count and winning that one hundred word diamond badge again. Somebody moved the goal posts. So many caches to find. So many caches to log. We find them, sign them and replace them.This particular geocache was found using one of the following GPS enabled devices, Garmin GPSr, Montana 680t, Oregon 650 or Dakota 20 and an Apple iPhone 11 using the marvelous Cachly app. Waypoints and paperless geocaching were downloaded via GSAK 9. Log prepared, checked and submitted using GSAK publish logs macro.Warning, this hobby can be addictive. It can lead to exercise, meeting new people and finding interesting places you might not have known existed otherwise. Beware: you may have fun. Apologies for the generic part of the cache log. We do apologise for the generic logs. Thanks to all the cache owner for placing this cache here for our enjoyment.Thanks for the cache. Merci la cache. Danke fr den Cache. Gracias por el cach.

2450 - After dismantling the campsite and packing everything back into the geomobile, today's goal was to go for the short drive to Kata Tjuta and check out the natural attraction, and then head east and then north to get to Alice Springs for the overnight stop. I headed off to the coordinates and took the required shots of the beautiful landscape in front of me. Answers sent via the Messenger service.

Velk cesta do Ocenie - den 24 - Nrodn park Uluru - Kata Tjuta, Northern Territory (70 km)Dnes byla na mm programu nvtva druh sti nrodnho parku - Kata Tjuta. Njak se mi tu neda vstt rno hodn brzy na vchod slunce a vyrazit vas, ne zane slunce prait. V zatm nejluxusnjm ubytovn toti patn spm.

No prost zase jsem vstala pozdji, ne jsem chtla, nasndala se a vyrazila ke skalm. Ve srovnn s Uluru mi tato skupina skalisek pipad hodn fotogenick z vt dlky, ale pak na mst u to tak zajmav nebylo. Tedy v sti rokle, kam jsem la na vychzku ke kece. Dnes svt hodn slunce, moc nefouk a nebe je bez mrku. Cesta byla cel nezastnn, tak jsem si slunce dost uila. Mj nov klobouk ale skvle pln funkci ochrany a vody jsem mla dost. Natst vychzka nebyla nijak dlouh a dovedla m do prrvy mezi slepencovmi skalisky, kudy tee potok a je tu zele. Takov mal oza.

The snuggle muggle and I got some great deals on cheap flights, so over the Melbourne Cup weekend we decided to leave Victoria and head for the **NT!**After spending the day before exploring Uluru, we decided to come and explore the other major landmark, Kata Tjuta. After watching a lovely little sunrise we then opted to explore the [Vally of the Winds walk](https://parksaustralia.gov.au/uluru/do/walks/valley-of-the-winds/).*Wow.. simply... wow!*Is all I can say. We were blown away by the beauty of this location. Uluru is so iconic and has such a spiritual and historical significance, but I truely think Kata Tjuta is a more beautiful location. We absolutely loved exploring it here today.I always love Earthcaches as they usually take me to beautiful locations and teach me some fascinating things, but this one completely out did the usual Earthcaches I find. Not only was the location one of the most beautiful I have been too, but it was interesting reading up about how different the compositions of Uluru and Kata Tjuta were.A huge thanks goes to [Tam sissifalke](https://www.geocaching.com/p/?guid=a7bd42e2-d7fe-4be6-b0fd-a58fd532a52e&wid=22fbb3bf-6af8-4c43-8942-7202cee72c00&ds=2) for this fascinating and beautiful, Earthcache!

This is the 3rd time I've completed this walk. Everytime is different and yet still spectacular. Looking down the valley from the lookout, you expect to see a wagon train or antelope roaming. Such a magical place

Found by The Empire + HVisiting Kata Tjuta, was an extraordinary journey into the heart of Australia's Red Centre. This geological wonder, located in Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, offers a unique and spiritual experience. Exploring Kata Tjuta, you'll find two popular walksthe Gorge Walk and the Valley of the Winds Walkthat allow you to immerse yourself in the stunning landscapes and ancient history.Our journey continued with the more adventurous and challenging trek known as the Valley of the Winds Walk, taking us deeper into the heart of Kata Tjuta. As we embarked on this journey, we experienced the elements of nature up close. The wind swirled around us, and we were surrounded by the immense domes, each revealing its unique character. The walk allowed us to explore the various lookout points, where we could take in sweeping views of the outback and the surrounding desert. We also traversed rugged terrain, offering a different perspective of the geological features of Kata Tjuta. Throughout our adventure in Kata Tjuta, we were enveloped in the spiritual significance of this place to the Anangu people, the traditional owners of the land. Their stories and cultural history added depth to our experience as we walked through the ancient landscapes, witnessing the interplay of light, shadows, and colors on the sandstone formations. It was a journey that invited us to connect with the land, its history, and the enduring beauty of the Australian outback.Answers sent, favourite point added. Thanks for the earthcache Team sissifalke.- MEarthcache #410

Day 30 of our greynomad trip up north and after a the JLWEvents, a tour of Maralinga and caching to claim LGAs in the Eyre Peninsula, we are attempting to escape the southern weather that has been wet and windy.

Today we visited this beautiful outcrop of rocks and enjoyed a stroll along with many others who were here today. It is so easy to see and feel why this place is so special to our First Nations people.

Photo attached after assuring the image we have posted is culturally appropriate.

I visited this earthcache on another enjoyable trip with FeatherWaite over 3-weeks through South Australia, Northern Territory and Western Australia. This time the plan was to head up to Kings Canyon, across to the WA border via Uluru and Kata-Tjuta, then down the Great Central Road, with a few side-trips along the way before eventually getting to the Goldfields and home via Queen Victoria Springs and the Eyre Highway.

We had some mixed weather to start, with a few overnight showers initially, but mostly warm and sunny days. The nights were often cold though!

It was not the first time I’d been in this area, but it was the first time I’ve had the opportunity for a good look around.

Joint answers sent and confirmed by the CO.

Thanks Team sissifalke for an interesting earthcache.

Made the observations on this interesting earthcache during three weeks away with e.gregory1 on a trip along WA's Great Central Road and a caching circuit of the WA Goldfields. We travelled North on the Stuart Highway and out to Kings Canyon to Uluru and Kata Tjuta. From there we headed in a south-westerly direction along the Great Central Road with a number of detours along the way, including Surveyor Generals Corner and Empress Spring. Then it was down to Laverton and Leonora before turning South to Menzies and Kalgoorlie. A few days were spent on a circuit back up to Lake Carey and around to Queen Victoria Spring before returning to Kalgoorlie, then out to Coolgardie, Kambalda and Norseman, before heading for home along the Eyre Highway. Thanks for the geological history and earthcache Team sissifalke!

Beautiful location and a lovely hike! It did start to rain so it was a bit slippery on the way down but we made it back safely:)
Tftc!

We went on a hike with our Mulgas tourgroup. The domes are really beautiful and we love the 2 lookouts. Unfortunately, it began to rain so our way back to the van was a bit slippery but we managed. For not making this earthcache to difficult to solve and the stunning area we will leave a fav behind. TFTC

Nice to learn about differences in geology between Uluru and this structure. Very different! TFTEC gets a fav from Pennsylvania USA

Unser Familientreffen fand nicht nur in Melbourne statt. Wir unternahmen auch ein Outback-Abenteuer rund um Alice-Springs mit Uluru, Kata Tjuta und Kings Canyon. Gefunden bei der Erkundung von Kata Tjuta. Zum Wandern oder Buschwandern war es viel zu heiß, also genossen wir einfach die atemberaubende Aussicht von den Parkplätzen und Picknicktischen in der Nähe. Antworten wurden an den Eigentümer, TFTC, gesendet. Danke für diesen Cache sagt mit Grüßen aus Melbourne und Germany KL4578


Our family reunion didn't just take place in Melbourne. We also did an outback adventure around Alice Springs with Uluru, Kata Tjuta and Kings Canyon.

Found while exploring Kata Tjuta. It was way too hot to hike or bushwalk, so we just enjoyed the stunning views from the nearby parking lots and picnic tables. Responses have been sent to the owner.

Thanks for this cache says with greetings from Melbourne and Germany

Family reunion after 3 long years! Ms Emu’s parents came over from Germany and the Emus took them on a couple of road trips down the Mornington peninsula, along the Great Ocean Road, to the Grampians and on an adventure around Alice Springs, Uluru and Kings Canyon.

Found while exploring Kata Tjuta. It was much too hot for hiking or bushwalking, so we just enjoyed the breathtaking views from the car parks and picnic tables nearby. Answers have been sent to the owner, TFTC.

Found with Kat33, Mumzi and TheGrunch. Greeting's from Calgary, Canada! After one day in Sydney we were in the air once more and hit up another site we had seen almost ten years ago and was the main reason we wanted to come back to the area. TheGrunch in particular really wanted to check out Uluru once more so we scheduled some time in this trip to head on over here once more. The flight went well and soon we were disembarking from the plane with a view of Uluru in the distance, kind of tough to beat that introduction here, Smile. Got settled in the hotel. We had booked the same one was we tried previously, the Desert Gardens, partially due to some of the other options being sold out, which surprised us considering we're in the middle of the summer heat (not sure it ever dropped from 35 degrees during the day time while we're here). TheGrunch had wanted to check out King's Canyon (something we hadn't done prior) and had a choice in terms of which cache to target. Stuck with the easier walk and enjoyed the creek walk where we picked up the virtual there. One advantage of this decision was that we were brought back to the resort where we had a leisurely lunch and found the traditional along one of the pathways there. Yesterday brought us to Uluru itself and we did a traditional hike from the Mutitjulu water hole to the cultural centre by way of Kantju Gorge. Today we hit up Kata Tjuta and picked up the two earth caches there by doing a couple of leisurely hikes! This cache was cache 1 of 2 and was found on 2023.03.07 at 7:46:00 AM for a total of 5136. No dnf's as well which is always awesome to say! TFTC Team sissifalke!

We were here - Joodie & Joodax
after work walk, wine and relax!
Team sissifalke Thanks for the cache and yellow dandelion.

We were at this location on February 13th, but due to constantly moving around Australia and logging other caches, I'm only now getting to these logs where answers need to be formulated.
Visiting Uluru and Kata Tjuta was a must for Jodie and I. It is simply a symbol of Australia, and only on the spot do we realize how tangible it is. Kata Tjuta herself made an absolutely incredible impression on us the day before. Today, after walking around Uluru, we still wanted to do the wind bike up Kata Tjuta, and because it was cloudy by local standards and because we set off really early, we managed to do it.

Na tomto místě jsme byli 13.února, ale vzhledem k neustálým přesunům po Austrálii a logování jiných keší, se k těmto logům, kde je třeba zformulovat odpovědi, dostávám až teď.
Návštěva Uluru a Kata Tjuta byla pro nás s joodie povinnost. Je to prostě symbol Austrálie a až na místě si uvědomujeme, jak moc hmatatelný. Samotná Kata Tjuta na nás udělala předchozí den naprosto neuvěřitelný dojem. Dnes jsme po procházce kolem Uluru chtěli ještě stihnout větrné kolečko na Kata Tjuta a protože bylo na místní poměry pod mrakem a protože jsme vyrazili skutečně brzy, povedlo se nám to.
