We camped that evening at Rowles Lagoon, another eerie dry lake set in Mallee scrub. Another camper there told us he used to ski on it as a child when it was full of water! Hard to imagine! We lazed there for two nights then set off for Coolgardie the final destination of the trail. On the way we passed through taller forest with lots of mine holes that looked as if prospecting was still going strong. The last ruins were of the former Premier Hotel at Kunanalling, a luxury hotel of the 1890s that catered to the carriage trade or lucky

The lagoon was empty when we were there. However, a fellow traveller found it a bit wetter than we did. Thanks for the photos Allan.
