I've visited that location, but not all of it. Maybe Sandhill Ridge?

It’s low level, definitely not on a ridge. If you look at the ground you might get a clue as to what it would be like in wetter times.

Lime Bay maybe? Although I didn't think there were similar mudflats that far around. Unless this is back towards Premaydena or Koonya? Am I allowed to guess 3 different places in one post - lol... :)

Lime Bay is the closest so far. A little bit west of Lime Bay.

I’m sorry John. I missed this one. Yes it’s walking across Sloping Lagoon. It’s not tidal, just completely dry after a dry period.

Thanks Graham. Sounds a bit like Thirlmere Lakes up here, fed by water table, so dries up during prolonged drought.

That's quite a long track, I'm looking for a more specific location. Closest named feature will do.

Easier to start like that and then narrow it down.
The coral fern makes me think you're between Adelaide and Meston.

No worries. Correct. I'm approaching Meston, traversing this pretty spot.

Hmmm, no, but I can see why you'd say that. Hadn't noticed the resemblance before.
It is in the same NP .
