RFI: Old Hut in Pulletop Nature Reserve

Carl according to the Plan of Management for Pulletop “A small two-room hut and pit toilet are located at the north eastern corner of the reserve. The hut was constructed by the previous landowner in 1963 for Dr H. J. Frith’s use during his study of the malleefowl.” It’s worth looking at the Plan for info about the history of the reserve and its natural history. see http://www.environment.nsw.gov.au/resources/parks/pomPulletopNr.pdf sandra henderson canberra On Tue, Oct 15, 2013 at 10:13 AM, Carl Weber <carl.weber@optusnet.com.au>wrote: > Hi, > > > > On Sunday I checked out Pulletop Nature Reserve, a large remnant block of > mallee, about 40 km north of Griffith.
