[Cuppa]

No, not Palm Valley. That’s one place I really want to get to. Couldn’t get in when we were last up that way, as the Finke was flooded.

[dads tractor]

I reckon the palms are livistonias so better fuel up and head for the bungles .

[Cuppa]

Good try, but not the Bungles.
Check the colour of the cliff behind the trees.

Rewan Memorial on your way into the Gorge. This memorial was erected to honour the lives of those Australian and US soldiers who were aboard a C47B Dakota aircraft which crash landed in Carnarvon Creek near Rewan Station, while en-route from Darwin to Brisbane in 1943

[Cuppa]

You’ve got it Bob, Carnarvon Gorge it is. With the gorge extending over around 22kms & varying in width & depth there are a number of quite different microclimates & ecosytems along it’s length, the palms shown (which dad’s tractor was correct about when he said they are Livistonas - Carnarvon fan palm - Livistona nitida) cover only a relatively small area.I had thought the light coloured cliff might give it away.

Excellent stuff people, what a great laugh to wake up to. :smileyvault-cute-bi
One of your imaginative answers is closer than the rest but all are wrong! (except for ‘outside’, ‘middle of nowhere’ & 'leaning on a post’)


It’s not gold.
I’s not Ballarat.
There may or may not have been drugs involved back then, but only as a ‘work aid'.
The item I’m using has a specific name & does much the same job as a gold pan in an area where water is very scarce.
It is me, but sun protection was required (not Victoria).

Excellent deduction Sherlock .... so can you narrow it down any further - I expect Google may assist in naming the ‘puddling machine/sieve’.

[jack]

BUMP Cuppa, hint please

[Cuppa]

Strewth, sorry I’d forgotten all about this.

I reckon you were close enough Apollofish. I was looking for Emeralds at Sapphire,Qld. The puddling machine/sieve is indeed a puddling machine/sieve. It’s called a ‘Willoughby’. The sieve is jiggled in the water in the half 44. Used to conserve water as water is such a scarce commodity out on those gem fields. The same water lasted us the week we were there. As you suggested the ironing board was used for sorting the find. Didn’t find anything worthwhile though.
