Information

Burke and Wills camped here on 24/10/1860. They also walked to the Mutawintji Gorge. Although there was a permanent water hole there the area they selected for this camp also had tall grass for the camels and horses. Today this area is a National Park but there is no signage recognizing Burke and Wills.
