Sun, 7th July, 2019 Bush camp near Upper Mosquito Creek Mining Centre, east of Nullagine, WA



7.30am 15.4 degrees, clear sky and strong wind blowing which has been blowing all night.

Headed off past hills full of big granite rocks. They stand out compared to the other hills.


Went exploring and detecting around Mosquito Creek Mining Centre. Must have been lots of people working their own shafts as there are heaps of them.









Plenty of rubbish around too.

Recent exploration works have left long wide strips with the tell-tale drill holes piles.

Drove back to the main road and back to the granite hills.


Stopped at Granite Hills Well – lovely gums in the creek.


There must have been a tank on the platform with the well below which is dry now.

Zoomed in on these rocks as we left. I thought they were balancing well.

Back home by 4.30 so we could get the fire going for our camp oven dinner tonight. Lovely evening as the wind has settled. Always plenty to chat about with Kerry and Brian.
