Water Pipe Dam south of lake Dalrymple Qld

Survey Point Water Pipe Dam south of Lake Dalrymple Qld
Latitude -20.7988900 (20° 47′ 56″ S)
Longitude 147.1766700 (147° 10′ 36″ E)

On the Glendon Rd about 12km south of the causeway across the dam, the state of the water in the dams is the key to this spot, the area immediately around the dams is barren, but there is good scrub in the general area and the birds use the dams as water supply.

No camping is advised here
