Wolf Creek Crater

The crater was created 300,000 years ago when a 50,000 t meteor became a meteorite. Officially second largest behind the crater in Arizona. It has been steadily filling in but well worth the look.

Towing the van was tough work over the corrugated road. Even with tyres deflated. The graders had started work on the Tanami and who knows when on the crater road. I am not sure if we are getting better at bad roads but certainly getting more experience.

Now we have stayed at Wolfe Creek, so now we can watch the movie. No it doesn’t appear we were murdered. The sounds of the night were limited to crickets and the occasional bird and the stars absolutely stare worthy.

We pulled up at the campsite, it was to hot for a walk so set up then made fruit buns. Walked to the crater lookout in the evening and did the rim walk at sunrise.

Then we faced to road back again. Didn’t seem as bad on the way back. Law of relative distance I think.もっと詳しく
