Lake Disappointment
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lake Disappointment is an ephemeral salt lake in a remote area of Western Australia.
Lake Disappointment was named by the explorer Frank Hann in 1897. Hann was in the area exploring the east Pilbara, around Rudall River. He noticed creeks in the area flowed inland, and followed them expecting to find a large fresh-water lake. To his disappointment the lake turned out to be salty.
