On a large rock platform above the Resolute Track is an enormous Aboriginal engraving of a whale, 35 feet long and 24 feet wide (it’s almost as large as the Waratah Trail whale, which is 41 feet in length). The whale has “two fins on one side, ane one on the other, and a disproportionately small tail. At its nose, which appears incomplete, are several lines, parts of indeterminate objects or appendages to its head. The grooves are weathered… Immediately behind the whale are are several faint lines which suggest the outline of another whale, but except for the nose and parts of the fins and tail (?) this has weathered away.

A few metres north of the whale is a fish.
