Information

At this spot on 19/8/1977 Warri Kyangu & wife Yudoonga the last wild aborigines in Australia still living as their ancestors lived were contacted and taken to Wiluna at their own request.

The rockhole would have been their main source of water. Look for it by visiting the Karrarinarri Claypan.
