SUMMARY:The Karalee Adventure - October
DESCRIPTION:Why Karalee Rocks? Located about 50 km eastwards of Southern C
 ross\, this magnificent granite outcrop is an ideal free camp between Pert
 h and Kalgoorlie. It’s just one of several granite formations popular w
 ith campers across the Western Australian wheatbelt. Karalee Rock is steep
 ed in history\, dating back thousands of years when Aboriginal people camp
 ed here and collected water from the rock’s gnamma holes and soaks. Earl
 y explorers\, sandalwood cutters\, and gold seekers also found refuge here
 . The rock’s fascinating past includes its role as a rainwater catchment
  for steam trains on the Eastern Railway from Perth to the Goldfields. The
  enormous rock catchment\, surrounded by six kilometres of granite slab wa
 lls\, directed rainwater into a 48.3 million-litre dam via a semi-circular
  steel flume aqueduct. This engineering marvel\, conserved by the Nationa
 l Trust of Australia (WA)\, still stands today. And is part of the propose
 d work in the area.  But it’s not ALL work. We will be visiting Mount C
 lara and surrounds for one of our days on site.\n\nConvoy Departure: Meet
  us at the Lakes BP service station\, where the Great Eastern Highway meet
 s the Great Southern Highway. We’ll gather at 8:30 am and leave at 9:00a
 m sharp\, revving our engines for an epic day of sightseeing ahead.  You 
 can make your own way to the meeting point by getting to Mundaring and fol
 lowing this map.\n\nThis trip: We will be removing trees from the rocks t
 hat are interfering with the water flow.  We really need a lot of support
  on this one to allow the transport of the cut timber back to the camping 
 area for future firewood.  Wheel barrows\, chainsaws hand held saws\, rak
 es and shovels! Yep we’ll need all the tools and ones you can bring your
 selves as well\n\nIf you wish\, you may make your own way to Karalee rocks
  and meet us there in the afternoon.  Please add to the comments whether 
 you are or are not part of the convoy.\n\nExplore the Scenic Route: This w
 ill be a continuation of the previous work clearing trees from the rock wa
 lls\, completing the table and chair rebuilds if necessary\, General clean
 up and clearing of the channels depending on how the water has flowed.\n\n
 Tow the Tool Trailer\, Be a Hero: Can you tow our tool trailer? We might n
 eed your help! If you’re up for the challenge\, add a note in your regis
 tration comments. Let’s make this trip even more epic together.\n\nWant
