Standley Chasm or Angkerle Atwatye (the Gap of Water) to the local indigenous Arrernte people, is a dramatic 3m wide, 80m sheer rock face geological formation.
"Once a narrow tributary of the Finke River system, persistent rainfall and flooding of a lusher bygone era has intricately carved the sandstone slopes. Either side bears the jagged, craggy impressions created over untold millions’ of years to dramatic and picturesque effect."
