What can I say? utterly amazing, definitely somewhere I want to visit. The scenery is spectacular even the very pretty Williams Town. So quaint.

I am flabbergasted at your brilliant photos - how much more amazing in real life - I must go!! I did know about Dead Horse Point but had not realised (obviously) the significance.
