Tempe Downs 13313-24
"Tempe Down Station. Stockmen mustering using helicopter. Shed there, where they keep all their bridles, saddles, and everything. Not so much horse riding these days. Tank stand there. Tank filled by windmill, pipes out to the dam, outside paddock. Ducks on the dam, a few horses there, a few bullocks. Through the gap in the range behind runs Illararri Creek. It comes all the way from Utju (Areyonga Community, west of Hermannsburg).
There’s a waterhole called Illararri Springs just near that gap. It’s a permanent waterhole, big important place, that one. All Tempe Downs important place for us, for family. This is our Country."
