Lake Wyangala


 The Wyangala Dam is the second oldest dam built for irrigation in New South Wales and was one of the last dams in the state where a railway or tramway system for construction purposes was utilised. It is the only dam on the Lachlan River system, which feeds the Murrumbidgee River, and in turn feeds the Murray River.  Built in 1935 it created Lake Wyangala.   This past weekend.  The tech services department at the mine had their annual Christmas family party.  It seems to get bigger and more fun as the years go by.  This year it was decided to go to the Lake Wyangala and options of camping over were available.  Which is what this family decided to do.  We drove down Friday night and stayed two nights.  The second night the group pretty much took over one whole camping area.  Here are some of the photos from the weekend.
