Lots of sandstone cliffs in this area (Mudgee).  Paul standing beneath outcrop.  And here are the Hands on Wall!  This area was occupied by the Wiradjuri tribe and the site is maintained by them today.  The tribe would be made up of several clans, each clan in this area would have had a food foraging area of 40-50km radius through which they would wander throughout the year.  This became known to white people as the ‘walkabout’.
