Tambo Dam

Tambo Dam
Breakfast on day two of the road trip to Winton was at Tambo. This dam is usually full of water, but dry this year, as with most of western Queensland.

Big Dry

Moondarra

Usually this time of year in Mount Isa the dam is nearly filled or overflowing after a big monsoon wet season. This year the rains have not come yet and the dam is currently less than 65% capacity.

This is the Rosebud dam just a little way down the Fountain Springs road. I wonder if Citizen Kane ever visited here?

Baroon Pocket Dam

Baroon Pocket Dam

At this dam in the Sunshine Coast hinterland you will find that fossil fuelled vehicles are not permitted on the water. A sign of things to come.

IMGP3993

The road to East Leichhardt dam has been graded recently and is in fairly good condition. It can be negotiated by a two wheel drive vehicle - with care. After any rain however, a 4wd would be needed.
