Dry Lake, New South Wales

Dry Lake is an ephemeral body of water in Young County, New South Wales, Australia, north of Wilcannia, New South Wales.

Dry Lake has a Köppen climate classification of BWh (Hot desert).[1]

Dry Lake should not be confused with The Dry Lake, an ephemeral water body between towns of Bourke, New South Wales and Brewarrina and the village of Goodooga,[2][3] The Dry Lake, when full, covers an area of around 520 hectares.[4] Nor should it be confused with the smaller body called Dry Lake south of Hay, New South Wales.
