But where are the Alligators?

As foreshadowed, today we pointed the Subaru south from Willow Springs towards Adelaide. Along the way we stopped off at Alligator Gorge in the Mount Remarkable National Park. We were a bit concerned as we approached the National Park along the entry road as it was still showing the aftermath of a fairly extensive bushfire that devastated the area in Feb 2025.
