The Desert Shipwreck
F1 #1
If you venture where the cliffs stand high,
A breaching whale will catch your eye.
Its sandstone flukes once crashed the sea,
And wrecked a ship for all to see.
The vessel lingered, ghostly drawn,
Its sails were torn, its crew long gone.
Yet its rocky shell still remains,
A sandstone hull upon the plain.
The whale looks proud, a trickster bold,
A million years of tales retold.
While desert winds still sing a song:
The whale’s been laughing all along.
So if you stroll these rugged lands,
With dust and wonder in your hands,
Look close, the tale is clear:
A whale sunk that ship right here!

You are searching for two large rocks. One of them looks like a whale breaching out of the water. Behind it, you’ll find another rock that looks like a sinking ship.
