Wow! these are some really good photos taken! I forgot you did a video.

More bush adventures. Took a trip down to Wombeyan Caves to look at - you guessed it - some caves.

These caves are cool for multiple reasons but one of them is that they were all originally limestone but then a volcano erupted and there was ash and then all the limestone changed into marble with these cool veins running through it and then water eroded it and now there are caves 3.5 hours outta Sydney.

The start was great, two of us had rope-tying experience but not with... vehicles. We actually had to consult a knot tying book to get our load squared away. But we made it! Look here, this is outside the Victoria Arch:

Very nice, considering a tornado (yes an actual tornado) blew through the area a few months ago. The camp grounds and associated areas only opened the week before after recovering from the damage.

Here's Wombeyan Cave:

This is all calcite with the drippings, and the cave itself is all Wombeyan marble (expensive shit. You'll see it in some old fancy buildings like at Canberra). That last spire is called Cleopatra's Needle and we don't know how old it is. Something I loved about all the cave tours was the recognition of how little we knew about all of this. So many unanswered questions.

Here's Fig Tree Cave:

Fuck-off massive structures. These series of caves were the first to gain heritage recognition/protection in Australia, in the late 19th century, but I can't recall more heritage detail than that. But they were the first.

This cave had graffiti on it that was dated by the graffiti-er to be from 1950, which reminded me of ancient Egyptian graffiti on the ancient-er tombs.

Last cave was Wollondilly:

Beautiful thing. Sopping wet. Very much wanted to slowly turn us into part of the cave itself, but we didn't have a hundred thousand years of patience in us.

Outside, the gorge:

And there were caves by the gorge too!

Very good trip. Thank you to J1 and J2 for doing this with me.

Also bonus kangaroo hopping event:

All the leg muscles and feet studies I did to level up my anatomy drawing. It all started 17 months ago as part of an art challenge I started on my Youtube channel and it's finally done!
