Clarkes lookout

Back to my bushranger series. This is a view into the Araluen Valley, the richest of the NSW alluvial goldfields of the 1860s. The only road out led up this steep range, where Clarke's Lookout gained its name from the Clarke brothers and their gang of bushrangers. This was a favourite place for them to watch and wait to ambush coaches coming up from the valley. :-) Best viewed large.
HFF and have a great weekend, everyone.

Explored.
