Mount Warning

Mount Warning is a mountain in New South Wales, Australia, near the border with Queensland. It is known as Wollumbin in the local native tongue, and is the highest mountain on Australia's east coast. Due to its height and close proximity to Australia's easternmost point, Cape Byron, it is known as the place that first sees the sun rise in the country. The name 'Mount Warning' was given to the mountain in 1770 by Captain James Cook, as its distinct profile served as a warning to the dangerous Julian Rocks two kilometers offshore. Mount Warning is the central remnant of an ancient volcano formerly twice the height of the current mountain, which erupted over 22 million years ago. The erosion caldera formed since this eruption is easily visible around the summit. Warning, Mount Warning, Mount Warning, Mount Warning, Mount Warning, Mount
