After watching Ronny Dahl and Torbs visiting this station, we just had to go see it for ourselves. At just over 5 hours from home, it is quite close. Greg, Briar, Sandri & Mitch joined us on this trip, and it was also Greg's shakedown trip with the Jayco Flamingo pop-top caravan. There is a video of this trip on Youtube too.
On top of Bulgaburra Rock, looking towards Amphitheater Rock. |
A Drone shot looking North across Lake Moore, and we were fortunate there was water in it after some recent heavy rains. |
Home for three days. We were camped at the base of Mt Singleton (background), near the old farm shearing quarters, which had warm showers and flushing toilets. At $15/night it is very reasonable. |
Greg & Briar in the creek bed right next to the homestead. |
About a third of the way up Watheragabbing Hill (474m), with Mt Singleton (678m) in the distance. |
Inspecting on of the large, intricate ant-nest entrances. The ants are huge (6cm or so) and not to be messed with. |
Greg next to his 'Tuner. |
Standing atop one of the several mine-shafts/wells on the farm. No fence around it, just as it should be.
There are several water crossings on the farm, which have nice firm bases, so good fun. Just drive slowly (Mitchell!) |
A beautiful, flat spot next to one of the few windmills on the farm. We had hoped to spot some Brumbies, but all we saw were some Merino's and the obligatory Roo's. |
On top of the best lookout on the station; Sidetrack lookout (~410m). It has a spectacular view over Lake Moore (below). |
Our final morning, enjoying some rusks and coffee before we packed up. Just look at that red soil; dark, deep red. Amazing. |
