Leinster WA - Northern Goldfields & a Ghost Town

Left miserable Kalgoorlie seeking warmer weather, heading north up the Goldfields Hwy. Whilst I complain about the rain, when it falls up here it is life giving. It was great to see a variety of wild flowers appearing on the side of the road. Pics below.

Just a few km's before Leanora I dropped into a real life or should I say dead, ghost town called Gwalia. I was not expecting too much and was pleasantly surprised. Awesome to see what an old turn of the century township would look like, as it was back then. Everything was open to the public. No fees to pay, just park and walk through the town. Most of the buildings are open and you are free to walk through all the rooms, which included furniture, kick knacks etc. Those buildings not open, required repair and were not safe.

Outdoor Loo

Dried lake system north of Kalgoorlie. Not so wet underfoot, but the rain seeps in very quickly. i had to walk in as I scraped the front spoiler on the 4wd track :( No damage done.

Tea Tree located at the ghost town. Ghosts have a sense of humour.
