Captain Charles Sturt and his team were holed up at Depot Glen, north west of Tibooburra for six months in 1845. They were unable to move forward or back due to lack of reliable water supplies.


"On the 21st (February 1845) we gained the muddy creek, but had to search for water where only a few days before there had been a pond of more than a third of a mile in length. Now none remained!

I had found the thermometer I had left with Joseph, which was fixed in the shade of a large tree four feet from the ground, stationary at 135 degrees F (57C) at half past two PM and in the direct rays of the sun it rose to 157F (69C)."


Toughen up ya bunch of pussies .... :D :lol:
