Burke and Wills did not actually find any landmarks on their arduous trek across Australia's inland. They found no new rivers and no new land features or landmarks. Their greatest claim to fame is the unfortunate fact that they embarked upon the biggest, most expensive expedition in Australia's history, and due to Burke's impatience, it ended up the most disastrous, with the loss of three lives.
