Summary: A single Aboriginal hand stencil in a small overhang near Tari Creek.

A single hand stencil is the only Aboriginal rock art in this small shelter above Tari Creek in the Wollemi, athough there may have been more figures.

The shelter contains extensive graffiti dating back to when an old road, possibly a logging trail, made access to this remote area much more accessible.

Below the graffiti is a grid-like figure, which is likely to also be European.

Some patches of red ochre may also be remnants of Aboriginal rock art.

Aboriginal Sites by National Park

Over 40 sites have been recorded within the park; many were located along the river bank and were flooded by the building of the weir in 1938.
