Somewhere near the
Grawin Club in the Scrub. I seem to recall it when I went to the Grawin Opal fields.

It is adjacent to the
Sheepyard Inn near Cumborah.

You are so close it does not matter. It is the Glen garry opal field just nth west of Cumborah. These all all part time opal miners with their own sort of Humpy. All these guys are real characters to talk to, and yes they all have the Glengarry Hillton Hotel. Picture to follow

Yes, the
Sheepyard Inn is within the Glen Garry Opal fields, and the sign is within a few metres of the Inn.
As you can see, my photos show a koala
warning sign as
well which is missing in yours, but it is the same tree and sign.
cheers, Ken

kgarn, yep your right on. I have forgotton about the
sheepyard inn, so my apologies. Yes Judy and I had a great time there, and she stated that I blended in so
well she could not see me. Daggy old work pants, beanie, bearded etc. It is a very interesting area to explore.

Glengarry Hilton
Trying to send image of the hotel, but having resizing issues at the moment. Yes it is located about 30k Nth West of Cumborah. It is the Glengarry Opal Minig area, where the characters are amazing and great to talk to. Most vechiles are unregistered and not roadworthy with many with rough chopped roofs etc. When the hotel shutter opens up ( about 5ft x 4ft corragated iron), you need to also order your food, as the poor woman can only
cook 1 hamburger at a time, hence many cold beers are consumed whilst waiting. If you do not like hamburgers or chips you may go hungry. This is a great little mining humpy worth a visit if you are in the area. There are no indigineous people in this humpy, only whities is all I saw
