Razorback Ridge - for the "Rock Climbers" in Town {Mount Isa}

Not far from town, to the south, is Razorback Ridge.

It is used by local "rock climbers" - but I think it is an amazing rock formation. 

For those who are fit and  have all the equipment - you can scale the sheer rock face.  For those who would prefer a leisurely stroll to the top to see the view - well you can.

Razorback Ridge has a very lovely incline on the other side of the sheer rock face side - and regardless of how you get to the top - the view is pretty awesome - even during the drought we are having!

What made the view all the more spectacular on my visit - was all the dark stormy clouds that were all around.  They promised some much needed rain, but they kept on keeping on - and passed us by, with the odd sprinkle here and there.

At the base of the ridge is a lovely little forrest of native trees.  Well, more like a clump than a forrest - but it does provide much needed shade and relief on those really hot days.

The small forrest - well, clump of native trees actually!

A really awesome "gate tree" not far from Razorback Ridge.

It has grown this way naturally - it really is quite amazing
