I had many amazing adventures in the Barrossa Ranges during my early years.

Hikes on my own, camping evenings with friends, day picnics with family and maybe even a little truancy communing with nature are all there in my recollections.

Nightfall in a wild place, at least wild to a child can be just as terrifying and scary as it is exciting and exhilarating.

I relished all those memories reliving this Barrossa eventide.
