Geocache Description:

Being suitably inspired by the Presidents Trail in the High Desert of California, I felt compelled to place a Prime Ministers Trail in South Australia. The difference between the two is that these are all small containers (not micros) and will not be along a power line so distances and locations will vary.

This series has 26 caches placed over 42 kilometres between Two Wells, Mallala and Owen – Enjoy!




Federation was Edmund Barton’s ‘one great thing’.One of the key architects of Australia’s Constitution, Barton became the new nation’s first Prime Minister at a grand ceremony in Centennial Park, Sydney, on 1 January 1901.


Crowds greet the new Prime Minister Edmund Barton (third from left) and Governor-General Lord Hopetoun (third from right), as they leave the rotunda in Sydney's Centennial Park, where the Commonwealth of Australia was born on 1 January 1901.

Admired for his intellect and calm temper, Barton’s glowing eyes revealed a keen sense of humour, while his ample girth was evidence of a love of good food, fine wine and stimulating conversation. With a rich and engrossing voice, he commanded authority wherever he spoke.

In 1903 Barton resigned to become one of the three judges who founded Australia’s High Court.
