|
|
The track I just ran up!! Morning sunlight shining over Mt Wilson, looking back down the hill I just ran up!! |
|
|
Burnt out track All the whole track looks like this - burnt out trees and vegetation; very sparse |
|
|
More burnt area on top of plateau The trees up here were smaller and scrubby-like, which makes this view very barren |
|
|
Lighthouse trakc turnoff The road finishes about 200m further on, and from this point it's 3.1km along the coastline to the lighthouse |
|
|
Bass Strait Island Don't know it's name, but just one of the islands off the south coast of Wilsons Prom |
|
|
More Islands The lighthouse is just off the left edge of this photo |
|
|
The lighthouse It is spectacular on a knoll jutting out into the ocean. A stunning sight from here. |
|

Closer to the lighthouse Looking down and along the rocky knoll |

Track to South Point - burnt out This part of the track is easy to see(!!) - other parts were far more covered in burnt banches, trees and debris |

The bottom of Mainland Australia Hard to get to but the significance of this sign makes it all worthwhile |

Driftwood at South Point My dad would love this wood - heaps of large planks washed up on the rocks |
