Palm Islands Group - Esk (Soopun) Traditional Cache

This cache is one of a series in the Palm Island Group.

Esk Island, known as Soopun by the Aboriginal locals is a small island close to three others. It is surrounded by fringing reef making anchoring difficult.

You will need a boat and favourable winds and tides to get to the island. Near to GZ you may be surprised to find signs of civilisation. After looking there you will need to look for a small black Sistema containing a log book and pencil.

There are ten islands of the Greater Palm group in the jurisdiction of the Palm Island Aboriginal Shire Council:

Curacoa (Noogoo or Inoogoo), Fantome (Eumilli), Great Palm or Palm Island (Bwgcolmen), Havannah, Brisk (Culgarool), Eclipse (Garoogubbee), Esk (Soopun), Barber (Boodthean), Falcon (Carbooroo) and Fly

Plus two islands in the Hinchinbrook jurisdiction, Orpheus (Goolboddi) and Pelorus (Yanooa) or North Palm Island.

All 12 islands now have a cache to find to encourage your visit.

Congratulations to Karicka for being the FTF.
