The entrance to the Dig Tree site. There is quite a deal of good information on the boards in here.

There are three trees with blazes here and not just from the Burke and Wills' expedition.

Brahe who was waiting here for Burke and Wills to return blazed two trees. People coming later looking for Burke and Wills also left blazes. Some time after King was rescued and the bodies of Burke and Wills recovered some one carved a likeness of Burke in yet another blaze. Not all these blazes are still visible as they have closed over.

The one blaze from Brahe that is still visible. It states the number of the camp in roman numerals.

This is the original dig tree. Brahe carved the word dig on this horizontal branch and  buried supplies underneath. The blaze has grown over.

The carving of Burke is still visible.

I was surprised to see that the Cooper was flowing as well.

We camped here for the night.

There is a $20 dollar fee per vehicle to enter the site. Which seeing we were camping is pretty good.

Yes the site is remote - a long way from anywhere but it is not inaccessible - it is only the last 10 - 15 km that is not bitumen.
