Packsaddle

Packsaddle is located 218 km north of Broken Hill via the Silver City Highway, halfway to Tibooburra. Packsaddle was one of the properties that formed part of the Goldsborough and Company holdings. "A gum-lined creek crosses the highway a short distance to the north of the Packsaddle Roadhouse, and some say the creek was named when Burke and Wills crossed the area to the east, near Wonnaminta, and lost a packsaddle from a camel or horse."
