Survey Point Kow Swamp 1 Vic
Latitude -35.9563900 (35° 57′ 23″ S)
Longitude 144.2647200 (144° 15′ 53″ E)

On the Mitiamo Rd on the west side of the lake, the site is where the road comes closest to the lake. It is fenced off farmland, but there are good enough views of the area from the road. There are a couple of drains here, some reeds by the water, some trees along the road, so a nice mix of habitat on the edge of the farmland.

No camping is possible here
