    Gorgeous gorge

    March 18, 2016 in Argentina ⋅ ☁️ 14 °C

    Talampaya national park is another of Argentina's several UNESCO sites. A huge red sandstone gorge where they have found lots of dinosaur fossils (mostly now in the University). That one with Lisa is a real one - honest 😉. We saw a set of ancient petroglyphs which show that this was an old nomad route along the river bed. I got a condor shot for you Mary, but trust me it is just a black splodge so didn't make the 6. There was a fantastic triple echo across the canyon when we all shouted in unison. We saw parrots, eagles, maras, vicuñas and a tree with photosynthetic bark - very cool.Read more
