FoHT Trail Development team checked tank on 14/4/2022 – the tank was full.
N2S E2E 23.4.21
Lovely Water, about 30% full, good pressure. A shelter but no bench to sit on!
FoHT Maintenance team report the tank level on 29/7/20 was 50%.
Walker reported that water tank is 70% full.
Water tank was almost empty. Campsite is very exposed we had high winds not much cover.
Stayed here on 2nd July. Little water in tank. Suggest carrying extra water. Exposed site but tent in amongst two trees was easily placed. Toilet was a bonus. Windy that night so no frost. No fire that night as wood was hard to find.
Camped here 6/5/18. Water flow from tank wasn’t great, suggesting perhaps not a full tank although other tanks between Quorn and Hawker were seemingly quite full.
Nice place to camp.
4/9/15. The track from MT Elm to here was initially Very stoney. Hard going. Then long fence lines. Got here as light fading. Desolate but quite lovely. Tank almost full.
Camped here 18/5/15. Tank has plenty of water. Toilet has door unlike photos. Had a fantastic thunder storm rip though about 3am put on a good light show. Wind battered tent for a while but it stood up to it great.
Hello All,
Camped at Calabrinda on Saturday 7 June 2014. Plenty of water in the tank and thankfully a lot greener than the pictures look here.
Cheers
Peter
