Uluru (Ayers Rock) North Territory

Mount Conner is a flat-topped mesa, thought to be a part of the same rocky layer beneath Uluru (Ayers Rock) and Kata Tjuta (Olgas). It can easily be confused with Uluru, since it can be seen from the road to Uluru and Kata Tjuta, when approaching from Alice  Springs. Maddy and I lost a bet to our guide Udo for claiming we saw Uluru first when actually it was Mount Conner. It was named for a South Australian politician.
