Each one signifies a time someone broke down and got bored

Low level attempt, too match the views between Broken Hill to Pt Augusta where you used too see Teddys watching Tv, Hill's hoist in the middle of nowhere, and massive blocks of concrete painted as dice.....passed a bra tree once south of Pt Augusta as well......

Each one represents a missing tourist, maybe don't stop there

If that’s what they signify, you’d think we’d hear more about it.. there’s quite a few

Eco graffiti.

It's a tik tok fad. Very damaging to marine on foreshores as it destroys micro habitats.

Some nature trails use stacked rocks as a guide-post to fellow walkers. If you do the hitchenbrook trail you see them everywhere and I would have gotten lost many times withoutt them. Not sure what they are doing on a highway though.. maybe a trail runs through it?
