We stayed at the River Gums caravanpark in St George. St George is actually larger than I envisaged. I rode along the banks of the Baloone river to discover the St George camp draft was in process. I wasn't inconspicuous with my mountain bike amongst the jeans akubras and horses.

A walk along the river in the morning came across this interesting sculpture. I can only assume the the Baloone river is part of the Darling river system and that there are Murray cod in the Baloone.

This is the current weir with steel gates and vehicular traffic over the river. I was also excited to find the remnants of the original bridge dating back to the late 1800s. This rocky causeway across the river was an ideal place to cross with cattle in the early days. This is perhaps the reason for the existence of St. George.
