After packing up at Carwarp West I9 Bushland Reserve on Monday 19th August 2024, I headed south on Calder Highway for 65 km until I reached the town of Ouyen. I had booked accommodation here for a few nights. I booked into my motel room, offloaded some of my gear, and then headed out to activate another park.

I drove to Kiamal Bushland Reserve VKFF-4232, just 8 km north of Ouyen. The park is also within the activation zone of the Kiamal silo VK-KML3.

Above:- Map showing the location of the Kiamal Bushland Reserve. Map c/o Google Maps.

Kiamal was formerly known as Kia. It is an aboriginal word with various meanings including to squat, emu, war spear, and fibrous tree). (Victorian Places)

In its day Kiamal was a thriving town with dances and other social events being held at the local hall. Kiamal also had its own cricket club.

Above:- Article from the Ouyen Mail, Wed 15 Nov 1939. Image c/o Trove.

The Kiamal railway station opened on the 6th day of May 1913 and was originally known as Kia Siding. It was renamed Kiamal on the 19th day of February 1917. The siding consisted of a goods loop siding that was completed in late April 1913. By January 1919 a passenger platform had been constructed. There were no goods platform or shed on the siding. Kiamal was closed to passenger traffic on the 14th day of April 1970. In January 1992 the Kiamal platform was removed. (Mildura Railway History)

The Kiamal Bushland Reserve is located on both the eastern and western side of Calder Highway at the intersection with Parallel Road and Dingo Tank Road.

Above:- An aerial view of the Kiamal Bushland Reserve. Image c/o Google Earth.

The reserve is about 18 hectares in size and was established on the 8th day of May 1990. (CAPAD 2022)

I accessed the reserve via Old Kia Road. I ran the Yaesu FT857, 40 watts, and the 20/40/80m linked dipole for this activation.

My first park activation for Monday 19th August 2024 was the Ginquam I5 Bushland Reserve VKFF-4129. This was to be the first time that I had activated the park for the World Wide Flora Fauna (WWFF) program, and only the second time the park had been activated for WWFF.

The reserve is located about 36 km (by road) south of Mildura in northwest Victoria.

It was a beautiful morning and before leaving the caravan park I enjoyed a coffee overlooking Lake Cullulleraine. Lake Cullulleraine is a natural billabong of the River Murray. Cullulleraine is derived from the aboriginal word kallalla meaning neat. The lake is popular for swimming, canoeing, kayaking, sailing, water skiing and jet-skiing. (Victorian Fisheries) (Victorian Place Names)

I then headed down to the roadhouse to fill up the 4WD with diesel and a bacon & egg roll for breakfast. I is always a sign of a good meal when you see trucks parked outside of a roaadhouse.

As I drove along the Sturt Highway I passed many commercial almond orchards.

The reserve is located on the northern side of Ginquam W Road, just to the west of the junction with Scott Lane.

The reserve is about 9 hectares in size and was established on the 1st day of May 1979. Ginquam is derived from the aboriginal word gam gam meaning horse. (CAPAD 2022) (Victorian Places Names)

After booking into my accommodation at Lake Cullulleraine on 18th August 2024, I headed out to activate the Benetook Flora Reserve VKFF-4126. This was the first time that I had activated this park for the World Wide Flora Fauna (WWFF) program.

The reserve is located about 29 km (by road) southwest of Mildura in northwestern Victoria.

Above:- Map showing the location of Benetook Flora Reserve. Map c/o Google Maps.

The Benetook Flora Reserve, also known as the Benetook Bushland Reserve is located on the northern side of Millewa Road and is divided by Meridian Road.

Above:- An aerial view of the Benetook Flora Reserve. Image c/o Google Earth.

The Benetook Post Office opened c. 1925. In 1929 the building was destroyed by fire. The office was closed in 1946. Benetook was located on the Morkala railway line. In 1924 the station opened with the first section of line. It had facilities for passengers, goods, and grain. It closed in 1970. At one stage Benetook had its own Australian Rules football team. (Wikipedia)

Above:- Article from the Sunraysia Daily, Mildura, Tue 21 Aug 1928. Image c/o Trove.

The Benetook Flora Reserve is about 48 hectares in size and was established on the 8th day of May 1990. Benetook is derived from the aboriginal word barnetuk meaning ankle. (CAPAD 2022) (Place Names 1978).

I ran the Yaesu FT857, 40 watts, and the 20/40/80m linked dipole for this activation.

This was a great activation, with a total of 97 contacts logged.
