Inside Table Top Hut. It is a very well set up place, with good heating, kitchen and accomodation. It is mainly used by four wheel drivers, who hire it from the owner.

The very large deck is a wonderful place to relax, and is well set up with appropriate furniture.

The deck is accessed by a ramp, providing wheel chair access if necessary.

Note the shade cloth which provides shelter from the worst of the sun, as well as welcome wind protection, without sacrificing the superb view.

This is the long drop toilet which was used before the composting toilet was installed in Table Top Hut itself.

When using these, you must be very careful that there is no wildlife trying to share it with you. Charlie is examining the structure from every angle, not realising that there is a red bellied black snake sneaking up on him from behind.........
