Wolfvane : the not so big unit
alt text
Spotted the Wolfvane notification on google maps and decided to investigate (It's near the town of Newman in Western Australia)
Turns out its a weather vane with a wolfs head, name does not lie.
Just needs a toilet, is quite mystical, does not require a reservation.
It gets 4 out of 5 stars on google reviews. The reviews are great..

The Wolfvane is sublime. A pillar of solitude. The foundations seem to be sagging a bit and may need underpinning so that the Wolfvane can properly swing in the breeze. But is that its actual purpose? Maybe.
Looking forward to the toilet facilities and perhaps an information plaque.

My partner really wanted to take us here, I was doubtful, thinking it was another one of his hairbrained ideas….boy was I wrong!! What a place, it’s so much more than a weather vane. The wolf sees you, and you can see yourself in it. Truly magical. Visit and become one with the wolfvane, you will walk back the 20m to your vehicle a changed person.

Certainly a highlight of the journey, searching for and locating the famed and yet mysterious “wolfvane”. Ground was a bit soggy from recent downpours and the wolf was listing a tad to the north... Who put it there? What was the purpose? I understand there was military base at that location and this is all that remains!? Unfortunately no toilet facilities are available. Coming soon apparently. It was nice to visit, to sit and ponder.....tranquil. Peace out.

Had one day off drove 2hrs just to see this. Did not disappoint. Well worth the drive. Will be a regular stop anytime I'm driving though Newman. Just remember no toilet facilities which is a little disappointing. But still worth the trip 100%. 10out of 10

I felt the same way about Carhenge in Nebraska.

everything is a toilet if you're brave enough
