Rock being thrown over the sub-terrain walls for foundantions of the inner walls.

The location for the bar centre post visible in the foreground. Further across, the opening where full-length louvred 'shutter doors' will open to a 2m wooden deck.
The laying of the first volcanic rock "bricks" - this particular spot being where the little shop would be located.
Looking northwards up the the main campsite. A cooking area for one group visible in the right of the photo.
The southern-most end of the main campsite with the cooking area for one group here. Parking for the southern 2 sites partially visible in the background.
Part of the rock garden at dusk I built with some of our guys using large volcanic rocks. Some rocks took 4 of us to carry.
Keep in mind that all these pathways will have lanterns hanging along them at night so its not going to be a hunt/fallover in the dark to see where you're going.
Pathways leading from the large main campsite to 3 other campsites and bathrooms.
Path leading off on one side to the bathrooms (far mid-left) and one onto a little rise on the ridge and the nearest one leads to another campsite and viewpoint.
One of the smaller campsites hidden behind one of the ridges.
The main southern campsite with more campsites terreaced between the contours on the farside of this photo.
One parking and turning area for 2 trucks at the southern end of the overland sites. Campsites off to the right of the road.
