Scope and Contents

The caption to the left of the photograph continues: 'We are in a huge basin of dry windswept plains with rugged hills all round: the nearest being Tororr about 25 miles away. I was reminded of the lesser Karroo in South Africa.

Owing to the unusual rains, I did not have to carry much water here. One load is made up of two empty five gallon drums'.

The album page is entitled: 'Labwor'.
