Geocache Description:

Small footbridge crosses the inlet feed to the Thegoa Lagoon.

Thegoa Lagoon is an ephemeral (non-permanent) freshwater wetland that supports a healthy and diverse array of native flora and fauna. It is an important cultural, social and economic resource to Wentworth and the Lower Murray Darling region.
The lagoon is approximately 30 metres above sea level with a surface area of around 80 hectares and a capacity of more than 600 Megalitres. The floodplain Reserve bordered covers approximately 445 hectares.
Thegoa Reserve’s southern boundary lies along the Murray River from the Weir and Lock 10 to the Lagoon’s western inlet. The western and north-east area contains major Aboriginal heritage sites and includes walking tracks. The north-east section also includes private lease holdings. The central area holds the water treatment plant (scheduled for relocation) and the Wentworth cemetery.

Thought for the day....The grass is always greener on the other side...What an odd place to reflect on the contrasts in life. Here lies a liitle footbridge on which one side you have the golf course, how heavenly,picturesque and green, where one spends "a liitle recreational time" and the other side of the bridge a liitle path leads to cemetary in which many people are spending "an eternity of resting time".....
