What is

Sandy roads- we'd suggest 4WD as a precaution. There's not alot here- if you didn't know where to stop, you'd sail right by.


While there was a small amount of debris on the eastern side of the tracks, most remnants of Falais seem to be on the west side.
The remains of a round concrete foundation below the tracks, as you can see from the photograph.
