Angorichina. Flinders Ranges SA.

We travelled to Ango (between Parachilna and Blinman) with an overnight at Hawker. It's a stark and beautiful place. Great walks abound. Plenty of great drives too. We visited Parachilna, Blinman, Liegh Creek, Copley and Beltana. Also met up with Nick and Sarah and the two boys, Mat and little Tom.

In one of the creeks there is a shale wall known as the blackboard. Jane's parents wrote their names there in 1947. It's still quite clear today.

Van park is a bit rough.  Not for yuppies they say!
Old church in Copley.
More creek bed.  The water is running but lots of algae.
Cheap accommodation in Copley ;))
