Bimble box and brightly painted stones

Bimble box grow alongside the interpretive trail connecting the Major Mitchell Caravan Park to the Yumba, their round leaves shiny when sunshine falls from a cloudless sky. Brightly coloured stones also line the trail, the work of local school children using colours and patterns reflecting Aboriginal themes.

People are not the only ones to walk this trail; often kangaroos, snakes, lizards and echidnas leave their prints on the soft sandy surface -- along with ants and the giant footprints left by my German shepherd Major.
