Also known as Bald Hill.

From Buchwald:
A mass of 37.8 kg was found by an aborigine, Wally Work, in 1937 on the Bald Hill (formerly Wonyulgunna) sheep station. The exact place was just west of the 485 mile post on No. 1 Rabbit Proof Fence and about 21 miles southeast of Mount Wonyulgunna.

Grams, kilograms, micrograms - it's all just so confusing :( Why can't we just weigh things in fractions of King George's big toe??
