Description

Old charts of the Burnett River estuarine system drafted in 1869-70 (sourced by Merv Hopton) show notable changes to the mouth of the river as we know it today. The system had two distinct mouths, one to the north and another to the east. This image is also available ovelaid on modern satellite imagery.
