Kata Tjuta - (The Olgas)

Kata Tjuta is perhaps more impressive than Uluru.  It covers a larger area although it comprises a number of huge rocks whereas Uluru is essentially a single boulder.
Things are certainly different since our previous visit 38 years ago.  There are sealed roads all round the area and viewing platforms to cater for the busloads of tourists.
It was a hot day (so much so that some of the walks were closed) but there was still water flowing in the valleys from the rain a week previous.
Clambering around in the heat, it did not take a lot of imagination to understand how quickly you can dehydrate in this environment.
