Impressions of West Australia Mining Trip to Kalgoorlie
A mining engineer recounts a four week journey by ANA plane to Kalgoorlie and Broad Arrow in Western Australia. He notes arid Eyre Peninsula scenery, red soil, flat plains, historic goldfields, and the aging mining towns with once large populations now faded. He describes travel, weather, and the era’s distant wagon trails, with reflections on friends’ heart troubles and the pilots skills.
