The Queensland Government approved the Upper Condamine Water Supply Scheme in 1961 and Leslie Dam was completed in 1965. The first stage of Leslie Dam was designed to allow the addition of a second stage to provide increased storage capacity. Following dry summers in 1969 and 1970 the Government approved the construction of Leslie Dam Stage II to increase storage capacity. This second storage was constructed between 1980 and 1986 and serviced water users along the Condamine River as well as providing alternative surface water supplies to irrigators along the North Branch of the Condamine River who had previously relied on groundwater supplies. There is a lookout with construction details nearby along with picnic tables and remains from the construction. Take a fishing rod (and permit) and try your luck with some Yellow Belly and Murray cod.
