Geocache Description:


Remembrance and Great Southern Roads

Over 100 years ago the dusty, Old Razorback Road section (then part of The Great South Road) between Camden and Picton would have been your only navigable route between those two towns.

Around 1930 works began on the Hume Highway deviation constructed as part of the depression relief public works program.

Those familiar with the roads in the area will know that the Hume Highway passed up and over the range as recently as 1980.

Remnants of the original deviation can be seen to the left and right as you travel north up Razorback on Remembrance Drive. Winding it’s way up the hillside, rejoining the present Remembrance Drive, just to the east of the summit near where the old Anthony Horderns”While I live I grow” tree originally was. The old sign can be still seen in the paddock.

The cache is a nano. Please hang on Tight to the container when extracting and returning.  I repeat Hang On Tight

This new cache replaces an GC6VQOW which has been archived.

Congrats to Curliebunny666 for FTF
