Guess this lake.....somewhere in Aust.

No, not Lake Disappointment John

Very Good No1...

now what is it called?

google couldnt find the sign post...dont they tell poeple what things are up there...do they want to keep it a secret or something

No, no secrets - I just picked an easy lake...I'll have to make the next one harder :))

I'll take a stab in the dark and say Buchanan Lake

That's the one, or Lake Buchanan (Qld) as it says on my map...

How did you find that MN1?

at first I thought he was up to know good and had posted the pic upside down to hoodwink us, so i stood on my head and looked and looked and looked....that didnt make sense cos it was very dangerous standing upside down on the desk .....and besides it hurting my head...so i stood back up and hey presto it stood out like a sore thumb...

i just looked for white patches across OZ...and whatdayouno.... there it was

dunno know really!

I am still amazed, oh well I may have to call by at Easter and find out more

okay

Thanks for that John...

...and reading that info in Peter's link it sounds like an interesting lake.

Cheers
Alan

Yes, Alan, you don't normally associate salt lakes with central Qld. Access to the eastern side, where I took the photo, is from the road shown in the GE image. I assume the lake is mostly/entirely on station properties.
As you can see, the surrounding country is quite flat, so there's no dramatic scenery around, just a large expanse of lake (nearly full when we were there). It didn't look to be very deep, and the article above confirms that. You'd get very muddy trying to put a boat in.
One mystery to me is that nearer to the waterline, the shore was covered with a thick mat of whitish, hair-like fibres - animal, vegetable or mineral? Maybe someone on here knows.

Cheers, John
