Thanks Kiwi,

it is a coal fired power station, 2 right next to each other - I certainly thought Nuclear when I first saw that cooling tower. Simpsons has me prepped to believe any big tower like that must be nuclear.

It was getting dark by the time I made it into camp, I had stopped a couple times along the way for a nap/walk etc. The dirt road into the campsite was a bit rougher than I thought it would be and poorly signposted, lots of unnamed cross roads (even those that are named are numbered 2536/3718/2518 etc etc.) Lucky I had the GPS with me.

It ended up taking me nearly an hour to do 56Ks!

Got to the campsite, quick look around and an even quicker set up, gotta love a van for that.




Next morning I was woken up by birds and the beauty of the place revealed itself














The light was changing quick so I went for a walk along the edge of the main waterhole

























I think this might be my new favourite photo, the tannins from the paperbark have stained the water nearly black making for great reflections.













The water at one end was covered in this weird weed, does anyone know what its called?

















The water is like a mirror








Back to camp, toilets and cold showers provided - all for $6.35 a night bargain! and only 1 quiet neighbour on the other end of the site.
