I think your on the money photoprado. Bit of a grim story to the camp ground near the aquaduct. Seems a bloke died in his tent overnight and no one noticed until someone camped there on their return trip several weeks later and noticed his tent and gear untouched since they were last there.
Last time I stopped there was to try and wake myself up after a poor nights sleep out in the goldfields. You can catch marron in the dam and the aquaduct itself was restored by the national trust a few years ago. I havent actually seen these gates though, might have to have a closer look next time.
Sorry guys, back at work and hadn't had a chance to jump on till now.
Photoprado you are correct.
And Rainman is also correct in what he said about the gentleman passing away. I almost make it a habit to stop here on the way to Kal as it isn't far off the hwy and it's a real nice spot.
I suppose in a way that everything in North Queensland is near Weipa - what's a couple of hundred kms between spots in the scheme of this big part of the country?
But really - a long way away.
If no one gets closer by tomorrow night, I'll come clean....
