This site is up a rough little track through a gate towards the rock that leads off the Sturt Vale Rd/Yunta-Danggali Rd about 11km SE of Manunda Station Homestead. There are some sparse trees amid the sea of Saltbush. The birding isn’t anything special, but the rock nearby to the NE adds a bit of atmosphere.
