Cheers

Stephen

G'day all,
What are skull tanks?

My 2 photos just above.

That’s the name given to them

Please create a New Place for Skulls Tanks so we can tag your photos to the place so others can find it on the map thanks.

Sorry Chris, wrong answer

Sorry Chris, wrong again

Sorry again Chris, not correct, but yes definitely in South Australia

Hi Paul, you are very close, but sorry not Middle Tank.

Must be Camp Camel Tank Then.
Can't say I've seen it but must have driven past it as we have been through that area before.
Paul

Sorry Paul, still not correct

Paul

You are in the right area, same idea of water collection, but these may help you more.

It looks like if it is not in Places or on the EOTopo Map, it is not important for people to stop and investigate.

Hi Stephen,

Looks like Skull Tanks with the road to the right of the photo, but as you have already said that's not it.
These tanks all look very similar, Even Ivy Tanks look like this. I've run out of options although I have been through this area it was many years back. I think it was about 2002.
You've got me on this one.....
Cheers
Paul

You are sooooo close Paul, so will help you one more time....lol

South of Skull Tanks.

I can not make it any easier than that

Never been there but is it Black Tank off Gawler Ranges Rd?

Peter

Might let someone else have a go. I can't recall any others out there but it was 18 years ago I was last out there..
I could find it if I scoured my maps, but couldn't say I've seen it
Cheers
Paul

Sorry Peter, it is not Black Tanks, but you are in the right area.


Next main hint......it is on the Kingoonya to Hiltaba Road, this is now going to make it sooo easy.

Lilyrocks Tank?

Peter

Dan Hole Tank ?

Paul

Dan Hole Tank?

Peter, Paul and Frank

All I can so is no, a little too far south, but as games we used to play, you guys are now nearly boiling........you are so closed.

Running low on diesel so I will ask if it is either Race Tank (Four Corners Tank ??) or Inocid Tank?

Peter

Sorry Peter, not those, but the next hint, north of Dan Hole Tank

No idea where Dan Hole tank is located but based on being close to Lilyrocks I will ask is it Maraka Tank, Stone Tank or Terrys Tank.

Peter

Wild guess, Stephen ...

Smith Shed?

Frank,

Your wild guess has paid off, well done.

Yes it’s name is the Smith Shed Tanks, and like most of the similar shed tanks, have fallen into disrepair, and not sure if they are, but they should be heritage listed.

One again, well done

Thanks Stephen.

Been down that road a couple of times a few years ago. Lovely drive, but we didn't stop at all the tanks. Camped at Waltumba campground on the western side of Lake Gairdner.

Went past Thurlga Station on our way to Kimba. Two kids came running out and waved us down, treated us like royalty. Dunno why, Thurlga is a bit remote, but not THAT remote. They wanted all the news - where we'd come from, where're we going to, why, wanna see my pet lizard and emu, how many kids do we have, where do they live? Cute kids, probably don't see many visitors.

Cheers

.
All I can say is...... "Many tanks Stephen". lol

Allan

I have just added another cute little place in good red dirt country.

But this time its not a water catchment tank.....lol

Stephen can you please add your location for this one - Smith Shed Tanks as a new Place please so that we can tag your photos to it. This will help others find it on the map in future.
