The water comes out at Milmilngkan and there are springs there surrounded by water pandanus where the water comes out of the ground. This might be caused by rainbow serpents which live under the ground there. This is all cross-hatched here. The cross-hatching represents the country there. That's what happens there, i've recently seen the water coming up out of the ground there.
