About 97km north of Broken Hill on the Silver City Hwy the site is on Teamsters Ck just north of Mount Westwood Rd. The tank to the west of the road usually has water in it, and has quite a few trees around the edge giving protection to the birds, all around though is rather sparse country.

No camping is advised here
