Mon, 1st Sept, 2025 Bush camp on pending lease near Mt Flora, east of Leonora to Bush camp on pending lease near Websters Find Mine, east of Leonora, WA

So much for the start of Spring, 7.4 degree min but the sky is clear. Light breeze.

Packed up and drove along the track checking out other spots to detect - no joy. Headed back to the fence line we had first driven in along. Passed our camp spot then pulled up on a flat ridge overlooking a basin. Steve went for a wander across the track and got some exercise. I just had a wander about.

After lunch we continued down the fence line and back onto the Leonora/Laverton Road and headed back towards Leonora. Sharon & Graham messaged that they will be in Leonora tomorrow afternoon so we agreed to meet at the free camp at Gwalia Museum. I suggested they do the Old Agnew Road for something different and to read the history plaques.

We drove back a way then took a bush track up past Webster Find Mine into another pending lease that had some scrapes etc on it. Spotted a two-headed emu, haha.

Chose a spot near the scrapes and set up camp.

It has been a warmer day, 27 degrees in the camper, there is no wind so we will have a fire tonight for a change. There is plenty of dead timber about.

Went for a wander but only found lead shot and old bits of tin.

Drinks by the fire - all quiet except for the crickets and the fire crackling. Spotted one satellite then headed inside as the coolness was moving in.
