An area of early pioneering history, that’s easy to miss.

The hill behind the GZ long ago was a large mobile sandhill, which has now self stabilised. The moving sands almost completely covered this special place. It’s fortunate that it wasn’t lost or forgotten forever under the sand. Surprising considering its location close to a road and housing. I wonder why it didn’t continue to be used? Luckily, its slowly being uncovered and recently restoration has begun.

Once finding the cache (which should be easy!) spend some time looking around and consider what our forbears and pioneers of this area would have dealt with and gone through…
