Named after George.W. Goyder, who was the government Surveyor General from 1861-1863.The sun sets spectacularly red on Goyder's Pillar. We crossed the North Simpson Desert and camped at Batton Hill, with traditional owner Lindsay Bookie. Lindsay took us for a short drive to Goyder's Pillar. Suddenly the Pillar turned red for about 30 seconds as small gap in the clouds opened up.
