To Broken Hill

 Our final dinner was in the Family Hotel.

Next morning we had a look around the Tibooburra area.  It was originally called "The Granites" after the granite boulders that dominate the area.

Of course the original industry was gold mining.  Most of the miners starved or lost everything in this harsh environment.

Accommodation was rudimentary, there was little water and no services.  It was a tough life.  Continuing south we visited Poole's Grave.  He was an assistant on the Sturt Expedition and died of scurvy.

On the way to Broken Hill, a constant in the landscape was the many dry water courses.
