Ayers rock

Rock and no roll, it is dangerous

Kata Tjuta National Park

Kata Tjuta National Park
Besides Uluru, the park is known for a grouping of rock domes found about 50km from the famous monolith, known as Kata Tjutu, or the Olgas. The domes at Kata Tjuta are made of conglomerate rock. The tallest is about 546 m (1,791 ft) high.

The group consists of more than 30 red rocks, with the highest point being the 1,072 meter (3,516 ft) high Mount Olga.

Uluru and Kata

Uluru and Kata Tjuta have been an important focus of the spiritual life of the region's Aborigines for thousands of years. Aboriginal rock paintings cover the walls of many of the caves of Uluru. Both sites also figure in Aboriginal legend.

 Nice pics, but I really think you shouldn't encourage people to climb Uluru. Suppose you know the Aborigines don't want people to climb their sacred land.
