Geocache Description:


A rest place on the side of the Western Freeway can turn up some interesting places. This one however is a little tragic. 

On the 28th of June in 2004, Charles Haber was working with a maintenance team on the Western Freeway when he was tragically killed near this place. At the GZ you will find a memorial to remember him. For many years I drove past this pullover and never knew this memoral was here or the story behind it. Hopefully now this geocache might give reason to pull over and pause for a short time and take stock on safety around roadworks. 

Please take care around the memoral. The geocache is located on the fence directly behind the boulder. 

While the geocache is well off the freeway in a rest stop,  please be carefull with children in this area. Might be best that they stay in the car for this one.

No room for a pen, so please bring your own.
