As my twitter readers know I’ve recently been to Kalgoorlie-Boulder. I love Kal. The air is clear and dry. The dirt is red. The people are friendly and wow… the buildings are fantastic.

The superpit – an ENORMOUS open cut mine – is literally on the edge of town. You can see it best maybe on this Google Map. 290m deep, 3km long and 1.5 km’s wide… it’s big.
Look how close that truck is to the edge!
The ute following behind the truck (get out your magnifying glass) gives you an idea as to the size of the trucks.
I remember stopping over briefly on a bus trip from Perth to Melbourne. The streets were very wide, right?
And Skylab! Didn’t Skylab come down there?
Fantastic pics, I am blown away by the scale of the operation.
I do love haul trucks. A hangover from my mining days. So big, so dangerous. One once tumbled down a face up north and the driver survived all cosy in that cockpit. Well not cosy, but survived.

Great pictures!
Those buildings certainly are gorgeous. And so clean. It’s amazing to think they’re so close to the mine and not covered in mining dust.
