The Sandstone Caves are an Aboriginal site for the local Gamilaraay people. Grinding grooves, rock art and other Aboriginal sites provide a strong link with their traditional times. « Walks 1-2 of 2 »
When it finally returned, the reporters were OK and the cut signal was unexplained. During the programme, one caller who identified himself as "Bongo" told a harrowing story of the night he was forced to spend in the Pilliga way back in 1978. The ordeal he endured that night affected him in such a terrible way that, to this day, he remains in psychiatric care. The recording of Bongo's call is freely available from the radio station's website, but it's tough to find, so I've embedded it here from my SoundCloud for easier access. Hit the orange play button below. Warning: You absolutely must NOT listen to this unless it's late and night and you have turned off your lights. Good luck!
Every cavern except one was open for access and provided cool relief from the midday heat, plus they offered a spectacular view out across the scrub-covered plain below. The one cavern that wasn't accessible was barred by a steel gate and when I peered inside I could see why. A low shelf of rock just inside the entrance had a number of grooves worn into it, but they weren't formed by the natural elements. The caves once provided a place of refuge for the Gamilaraay people and the grooves are the result of who knows how many stone axes and other tools being sharpened. It was a window into another time and the grooves were a physical reminder of a culture stretching back thousands of years. If the rocks could talk they would have so many stories to tell. Despite there not being another soul around, I knew I had to say something significant to mark this truly special moment, so I said "Wow. " Do you have a question or comment?
