Gallery of log for Uluru/Ayres Rock Directional Table
Just logging an early historical find.
After starting with the NT Geological Survey one of my first jobs was to take the science director of the NASA Mars Pathfinder mission on a field tour of the geology of central Australia. The first port of call was Ayers Rock where we met him at the Ayers Rock airport. We climbed that afternoon. It was November with temps in the low 30s. Wonderful to discuss the geomorphology of the surrounding desert with a Planetary Scientist. The fact this is no longer possible a sad testament to the depths of ignorance we are now embracing. Vale the Ayers Rock Climb! We will return!
