[QUOTE="Rockhunter62, post: 370235, member: 7504"] Hi Ray, To get to the Fullerton River, head east out of Cloncurry and about 12km east is the turnoff to the right for the Landsborough Highway. Turn down there and head towards McKinlay, about 49km is the Fullerton River. Turn to the right before the river and you will see the track for Maranon Station, just follow the arrows for about 20km and you will eventually see the low ridge on the left hand side of the track. It is only about 100 - 150mtrs off the track. It is signed. Found the better sized garnets just on top on the eastern side. Maranon Station only like you to stay for 2 days as other people have done the wrong thing and stayed for weeks at a time, don't drive on the station tracks if they are wet. You can ring them on 07 47468468. They are nice people to get to know. The tourist information centre in Cloncurry has all the info you need for the area. Hope this helps. Cheers Doug [/QUOTE]
