A confluence is an intersection of a latitude and longitude. There is a confluence within 79 km of you if you're on the surface of Earth.
The Confluence Degree Project is an organized sampling of the world. After discounting confluences in the oceans and some near the poles there are still 10,061 confluences on the earth. This is one of them.
The goal of the project is to visit each of the latitude and longitude integer degree intersections in the world and to take pictures at each location. We visited this confluence on a trip to Broome BUT also placed a geocache on the spot so you can share in finding a confluence as well.
This one is a fair stroll of about 350m from the road through scrub. We suggest you wear boots and long trousers to minimise the impact of the native spinifex grass. Please avoid bush bashing and stepping on the plants - they are actually very fragile and there is usually a way around them.
It may also be a good idea to waymark where you left your car as the area is basically flat and looks similar from all directions. We don’t want you to get lost!!
The container is a white screw top jar placed exactly on the confluence coords. It is well covered by a large pile of sticks to protect it from the sun. Please replace exactly as you find it, assuming that the previous cacher has done the right thing. Enjoy your hunt.
