Hyden Humps Dam

Hyden Humps Dam is situated at the southern base of The Humps, approximately north east of Hyden and north of Wave Rock.

Water

The dam is filled with rainwater runoff which is channeled off the Humps mountain.

Characteristics

The water source is now only used as a backup supply after the completion of the Great Southern scheme where water is piped through the wheatbelt region from the Harris River Dam.
