Geocache Description:


Aboriginal history

The area now known as Googong has a rich history in Aboriginal culture. The Ngunnawal people have lived in and maintained the area for thousands of years. The area is also rich in cultural and natural resources which sustained the Ngunnawal people. The Queanbeyan River was a traditional pathway used by the Ngunnawal, Yuin and other neighbouring tribes to gain access to the higher country where they would perform lore such as initiation, trade and marriage. Googong also has Aboriginal sites which are viewed by the Ngunnawal people as holding spiritual significance, including London Bridge Arch. Please respect all heritage sites.

The area and cache are only accessible between 8am and 5 pm and daylight savings times of 8am and 7 pm.

The wool shed was built in the 1930's with redbox supports ,tallow wood flooring and galvanised walls and roof. The cache is a small sistema well blended into its surroundings. There is a log book and pencil within a zip lock bag. Plenty of swaps as well.
