G'day Michelle,
Hoover house Gwalia.
We were there 2 months ago. :-)
Can you please order less rain. Been
camping for 6 weeks chasing the
wildflowers from
Geraldton in South direction. Flowers have been great right thru to
Esperance but been nearly stuck on some of the tracks due to the rain!
Cape Arid NP still shut.:-)
Couldn't have done without the Traveller app. Love it & use it every day.
Cheers
Stu

Hey Stu,
The "Place" in the picture I am referring to is the structure at the front, not the house behind. To get the Win on this one, I need the name of this structure and the location which you may or may not have already stated in your first guess. Be quick before someone else has a guess.

Hmm I know it was for emptying the
mine carts but can't remember the structure name.

Sons of Gwalia
Does Sons of Gwalia Headframe count.
:-)
I looked back at my photo with the information board in it.

Yes Bushranger1 you got it now. This is the headframe at the
Gwalia museum (
Leonora, WA). This is just one of many fascinating things to see at this excellent site. We visited here a few weeks ago and spent a half day.

One of the very few outback
places where I will have scones and jam and cream.

Hi Michelle,
Yes a really interesting place.
We spent 2 half days there wandering the old townsite & museum.
Great spot to walk back in time.
