Sat, 5th Oct, 2024 Bush camps near old Murrin Murrin townsite, east of Leonora, WA

11.8 degrees, min, clear blue sky and light breeze.

Warmed up quickly as the sun rose which is getting up earlier each day!

Walked over to the quartz area where Steve had seen the dig holes but we couldn’t find any gold.

Packed up and went along the track to where Steve found his little bit and went for a wander. No joy here either.

Continued on to where Mike & Anne had camped according to the screenshot off their Trilobite. We parked by a small hill and set up.

Went for a wander and found where Anne’s treasure had been and where Mike had gridded it with a chain. Then found the spot under a tree where he found his nugget but we couldn’t find anything for us. Lots of hot rocks that you have to kick away to make sure what your target is.

Only a light breeze today so it has warmed up to 31 degrees in the camper.

Rang Mike and Anne to say we were here and that they got it all! He said to try further out as he had got a bit on a big walk and he sent his trail to follow.

Lovely temp to sit outside around the fire tonight while we had our dinner etc.
