11 Stony Creek

An old Glacial area a nice place to camp with BBQ`s and long drop loo`s.
Well as Kathy cannot resist rocks we had to go for a climbing walk, the rocks are beautiful all different shapes and sizes really different looking they have almost a marble look in texture.

The Conglomerate rocks in the base of nearby Rocky Creek are composed of a range of granite, volcanic and sedimentary rock pebbles and boulders which were eroded from the landmass by one or more glaciers more than 300 million years ago. The well rounded boulders in the conglomerate are the product of high energy water currents, capable of moving large sediment loads downstream from a glacier.





A lovely campfire keep us warm.
