This magnificent
waterhole is an expansive
pool situated in the eastern extremities of the
Rooney Creek. It is approximately 70 meters across and 4 meters deep indicating it would last a good while during drought conditions.
It is approximately 10 km to the east of
the Desert Queen baths
camp area and is accessible via a track that shoots east from the track that heads from the DQB
campground to the
cave on the opposite ridge. Keen eye may be needed in some areas but it is still
well defined.
We have simply called it the
Rooney Creek Pool in the absence of any other name for it.
