  • One Tree Hill - one of many no doubt !

    G'day all

    The small town of Tambo is almost in the centre of Queensland - and like many other outback communities is really suffering at the moment from the extended drought
    Cattle stations we are visiting are all downsizing their stockholdings - some by up to 75% and at a great economic loss

    At the moment we're having several days on a cattle station along the Salvatore Rosa highway - well it's called a highway but in reality it's a bumpy dirt road once the bitumen finished about 20km out of Tambo. But along the way, I came across this wonderful place - I call it "One Tree Hill"

    Hope you enjoy it too ..

    Nice pano, but here we would call it 'One Tree Flats'!

      Beautiful Qld outback shot. I guess living in Qld that's why I love the rolling green hills of our southern neighbours. Hope they get rain this season and it doesn't all just stay on the coast.

        What a wonderful image of outback Oz showing the harshness of this ancient landscape.

        Really has strong appeal.

          Yeah -

          This is near Tambo, south east of Longreach - someone was telling us that over the last 30 months, Longreach and district has had 1/4 of one year's average rainfall
          Can't verify the actual numbers, but I can see paddock after paddock of dust & stubble
