Day 2 - Uluru


These are photos of the path you take to climb Uluru. If you look closely you can see a white trail and a chain rail, that you hold onto as you climb. It actually looked quite steep. Unfortunately the climb was closed when we were there. Apparently it's closed 90% of the time due to strong winds and weather. They highly discourage you from climbing since it is is very sacred to the Aboriginal peoples. They use scare tactics telling you that if you climb it you might die and that would make them and your family very sad, so don't do it.
