Trip to Yudnamutana
In about 1910 Alice travelled to Yudnamutana with her father, Arthur Hiddle, John "Scotty" Napier and his youngest daughter Winnie and probably Vic Lampe who married Win in 1913 and Harry Ragless and his niece Lena Ragless.
Scotty Napier ran the stock/mail coach from Farina to Yudnamutana and the Raglesses ran Witchelina Station near Farina. Presumably the Hiddles and Raglesses hitched a ride with the Stock Coach run.
Yudnamutana, also referred to as Yudanamutana or Yuda, is situated to the north of the Yudnamutana Range in what is now the Arkaroola Wilderness Sanctuary in the northern Flinders Ranges of South Australia. It was opened as a copper mine in the 1860s but closed a few years later. It reopened in 1897 and the smelter was completed in 1910.
On the way, the travellers also visited Balparana Well and Umberatana Station.
