Thruston National Park is between St George and Cunamulla. It is an old sheep property that has been handed back or brought by National Parks. This homestead is pretty much beyond saving I am not what National Parks have planned for it. Nothing I suspect.

This was not the only dead roo under the house. I can only assume that in the middle of the drought these poor fellas came looking for the shade and basically a place to die.

While there seemed to be tracks everywhere we did find our way to the shearing shed where we spent the night. The shearing shed complex was more interesting. The shed was laid out differentially to what I had seen before with the sheep holding pens behind the shearer and the shorn sheep sliding down under the shed and under the holding pens.

The group of buildings were all still identifiable with the wash house, cook house, meat house, and shearers quarters.

There was also an old bore drain running down one side. I am not sure how far away the bore was. Some of the literature said the bores were all capped in 2007.
