A City Crossing Multi-Cache

The current Victoria Bridge is not the first bridge constructed across this section of the Brisbane River. All up there has been four permanent / semi permanent bridges, The Brisbane Bridge (which only lasted two years before succumbing to wood worm and rot) and three incarnations of the Victoria Bridge since. This multi will tell you a little about the sometimes tragic history, of the various bridges and events, at this location.

The heritage listed abutment at the southern end is a remnant of the Second Victoria Bridge. It was heritage listed as being representative of Queensland architecture of this time and there is a memorial attached to it remembering a tragic accident that happened at the end of WWI.

Make your way to the two way-points HM1 and VB1. Pause at the marble memorial and the information boards. Read Carefully! All answers are a different number and the answers run in chronological order. You need to obtain answers for the following questions which will lead you to the cache which is located at:

S KF° KG.BCB' E CAD° HC.CGG'

You are looking for the year that the following events occurred in.

Brisbane Bridge Opened? last digit = A

First (named) Victoria Bridge Opened? last digit = B

South Brisbane dry dock opened? last digit = C

First Victoria Bridge Destroyed by Flood? last digit = D

Pearl Ferry Disaster? last digit = E

Second Victoria Bridge Opened? last digit = F

Hector Vasyli's tragic accident? last digit = G

Story Bridge Opened? last digit = H

Current Victoria Bridge Opened? last digit = J

Victoria Bridge Abutment Heritage Listed? last digit = K

If you find that the Abutment is closed on your day of visit (seems to co-incide with fireworks events) the information can still be gathered without needing to view the memorial.

At GZ, please make sure that the cache is out of site when replacing.

Thanks for visiting and Happy Hunting!
