Elephant Rocks

Duntroon, outside of Oamaru, is an area where a large private pasture is known as Elephant Rocks for the massive limestone formations scattered about. The site is famous for being Aslan's camp in The Chronicles of Narnia. The owners allow public access through a gate. We enjoyed a stroll around the site with our missionary friends turned tour guides, Elder & Sister Osburn.

No question which pasture contained Elephant Rocks. Disclaimer: None of the rocks actually looked like an elephant!
   
Golf balls ricocheting like pinballs would be challenging with these big rocks on a golf course.
Sister Edward is ready to introduce the different rock formations to you.
We can only imagine the fun our grandkids would have here.
Is this a dog or a bird? .....or something else?
Several creatures come to mind!
A very calm and relaxing place to visit.
..... soon to be featured in The Chronicles of Elder & Sister Edward.
An abandoned movie set at the far end of the pasture.
The movie "Kingdom Come" went bankrupt before filming started. This is one of two movie sets slated for demolition.
"Thank you for your support!"
