On this site enter cnr country as a place name and a trek name and play with the map.

Thanks Sigmund, I had a look at that earlier and couldn't find anywhere how recent the images were apart from being 2014?
Cheers.

I think Cullyamurra waterhole near Innaminka is a permanent waterhole and very deep.
Cheers,

A number of Cooper waterholes around Innamincka are permanent - though I wouldn't have called that Corner Country (shrug shoulders). If it's fiishing or birding that sparked the interest getting out to Coongie Lakes is a must. The road is readily closed when it's rained and some folk have taken multiple goes to get there. We made it on the second try.

Never thought of Innamincka as being part of the Corner Country - it's certainly a long way from the corner!

In the Sturt National park has a Ramsar Wetlands site at Lake Pinaroo. It was full when I last visited in 2011, and would be surprised if there wasn't water there this year. It is located near Fort Grey - good campground there. Here's a link to the walk:

And here is the interp sign at the site and a photo:


and here is the Ramsar sign:
