Brief description of site: A large leaning rock-face a few metres above MAL-NTU4, near the top of Nthulu hill.Provides shaded seating and a limited amount of shelter.
Brief description of art: A large panel of pictographs, all applied by finger in red. There is unusual variety in the motif forms including a number of complex motifs (see Photo 20). A number of motifs are decorated with fine white dots. Some motifs are arranged around holes and depressions in the rock surface which become integral to the overall design. In one instance, below a large complex design, it looks as if the hole has been intentionally enlarged. Rock is slowly crumbling. Various painted sections have clearly flaked off The rate of flaking seem quite slow, the amount of missing sections of pictographs is enough to suggest considerable age for the paintings at this site.
