Karatee Dam, which isn’t far from Southern Cross, was built to supply water for the steam trains. Now it makes a great bush camp on the way to Kalgoorlie. The dam was designed so the water ran off rocks. We were tempted to go for a swim as the water was very clear but it was a little late in the day for me. We took a walk around the dam instead. It is a large area with flushing toilet. (I know I may mention the toilet a lot but when you are bush camping the good old dunny becomes very important; especially for us ladies.)
