1976  The once majestic Wanda Sand hills. The sand was simultaneously extracted by a water dredge from below, and by truck and grader from above. The curved line below the grader is significant. The sand below the line was Georges River “river” sand, and above the line,  Wanda beach sand. Tim Vanderlaan Photo
