“Climbing and Camping in Australia: The Best Winter Adventures”

Australia is a land of adventure, with stunning landscapes and unique wildlife that make it the perfect destination for outdoor enthusiasts. During the winter months, there are plenty of opportunities to explore the country's natural beauty, whether you're into climbing, camping, or both.

MT. ARAPILES, VICTORIA

One of the best places to go climbing in Australia is “Mt Arapiles” in Victoria. This world-renowned climbing destination has over 3000 routes to choose from, making it a mecca for climbers of all levels³.

MOONARIE, SOUTH AUSTRALIA

Another great climbing spot is “Moonarie” in South Australia, a jagged and highly technical 2km crag with sweeping views of the surrounding desert².

HANGING ROCK IN BLUE MOUNTAINS

If you're looking for a more laid-back adventure, why not try camping in one of Australia's many national parks? Some top picks include “Blue Mountains National Park” in New South Wales, “Daintree Rainforest” in Queensland, and “The Grampians” in Victoria⁵.

DAINTREE RAINFOREST, QUEENSLAND

But what if you're looking for something a little different? Why not spend your winter exploring the tropical north of Australia? Darwin, in the Northern Territory, is the perfect place to visit during an Australian winter. Some of Darwin’s famous attractions are seasonal and only operate during the dry season between May and October when the tropical weather cools to a balmy 22 to 32 degrees Celsius⁸.

No matter what kind of adventure you're looking for, Australia has something to offer. So pack your bags, grab your gear, and get ready for an unforgettable winter adventure Down Under! 😊

Day 5. Creepy green rock.

There were thick layers of oddly creepy green rock. The color and texture immediately brought to mind a carpet of mold on a tangerine at the bottom of the bag. I could almost smell the pungent odor of the fungus.

I am listening to the book Gótico by Silvia Moreno-García, in which a fungus infested worn and dated British mansion in the humid mountains of Mexico is a villain.

I was flooded with thoughts of the HBO series, the Last of Us, which Wendy and I had started before I left. Post apocalyptic tale of a world in which mold has taken over people and covered the landscape with a carpet of fungus.

All to say, sleeping beside a huge outcrop of this green stuff was a little creepy!

Even more so, when I found a piece of white stone with perfectly formed, green tendrils running through it! The stuff is alive and coming for me!

The former geologist I me found an article indicating that the green is from the mineral celadonite. In the massive porites beds, the sediment matrix and contained molluscan fossils are stained a green color by material remobilized from the underlying Cerro Colorado. They could have been formed around ancient hydrothermal vents

Sounds like an invasion to me!
