You'll be waiting a while.
Sorry, there's a pedant in every crowd.
It sounds like a great morning. Years ago we did a similar thing at Chambers Pillar (on the edge of the desert south of Alice). Got up in the dark, no lights on at all, climb up a mesa to the east of the pillar (scouted the path the day before) and watched the sunrise sweep across the desert and onto the pillar. Spectacular morning. Plus the best naked-eye view of M31 I've ever seen.
You'll love the Bungles.
