We travel to the north to the Grampians. A mountainous area in the further flat land. The rocky shelf is slant so one side of the mountains is almost vertical, the other a more gently slope. Here we see our first kangaroo. Often we see grass palms, in the east called “black boys” as they are often black scorched by the frequent fires. The Grampians are special as it is an isolated ridge in a semi-arid area. Many species can only live here and not “escape” from the Grampians.
