Have you ever run up a jump up?
Jump Ups are to be found throughout Western Queensland. A jump up is a landform usually known as a Mesa, which means it is a flat tabletop style hill with steep sides/cliffs. Sometimes, boulder opal can be found in the countryside surrounding a jump up. Jump Ups are usually found in flat, open country, and to drive or walk to the top of one can provide you with a scenic 360 degree view. This one is near Quilpie, and looked spectacular last week in the late afternoon sunlight.
To climb to the top of a jump up and take in the fresh air and the view should be on the list of '101 Things To Do Before You Die'. Is it on your list?
