The Pootnoura Rest Area has an amazing view... oooopps maybe the heat is getting to me, there's not much to do here but take a break from driving, and maybe hallucinate a bit from the heat and read the information board. This site is set back from the main road with an undercover picnic table, emergency water supply, and an emergency phone if your in trouble. As always, its best to boil water from an unknown supply, before drinking it.
