On top of the Great Dividing Range
The Great Dividing Rangei is Australia's most substantial mountain range and the fifth longest land-based range in the world. It stretches more than 3,500 kilometres (2,175 mi) from the northeastern tip of Queensland, running the entire length of the eastern coastline through New South Wales and then Victoria. Its mountains are small compared to those in many other parts of the world.
This was taken from the air in the early morning near Paluma about 80 km northwest of Townsville, Queensland, Australia. It is on the eastern edge of the Great Dividing range which receives high rainfall. The vegetation here consists of rainforest and tall Eucalypt forests. The sky is hazy from smoke.
The rock type is granite. The area is quite rugged with deep gorges.
Thank you for visiting. I appreciate the faves and kind comments very much.
