Quiet for 24 h. Once the state is identified, the field should be narrowed fast.
The photo was 1980s. I can remember very little of the drive, probably because there was nothing to remember except this one feature.
It is the crossing of a waterway (creek or river).
In checking the distances, one map shows a town half way between the endpoints and calls the road a highway.
A different map doesn't show that town, and doesn't call the road a highway.
My guess is that it was dirt in the 1980s, and may have been surfaced since.
Another reference gives a state route number, but doesn't call it a highway.
I'm not planning to go back to check.

Excellent entries from the clues and the terrain and the loneliness, but not right (Hay Plains was already the most remote of the early entries).
They have earned another clue, then we move to 20 questions.
Not NSW.

Closing in.
Yes, Queensland, but not state 14 over Coopers Creek.
