Location & Dimensions:
Australia’s famous giant red boulder is part of Inisfree’s military training region, perched near the corner of one of the two desert plateaus. There is a narrow waterfall that cascades down through several tiny pools, and a rather difficult-to-spot natural staircase of indentions and ridges that allow for non-technical foot traffic.

- base: ~3,520′ above Inisfree’s ground-level
- width, short axis: ~2,046′
- width, long axis: 2,574′
- top: ~4,662′ above Inisfree’s ground-level
