Geocache Description:


The town of Paruna, between Loxton and Lameroo, was proclaimed in 1914, after the opening of the Barmera to Paruna. The railways have since closed and been removed, replaced with a good, bituminised, Browns Well Highway. The name of the town meaning ‘stopping place’ from first nation’s peoples.

 

Part of Region 3 – Chaffey Group.

Training sessions are held first Tuesday of the month.

Total incidences for 2022-2023 = 12 responses, including grass, stubble and scrub fires.

 

For this quick multi, research the year the station was established by either visiting the starting coordinates or via the web. Simple substitution as follows:

 

Year = ABCD

Final coordinates = S34 43.AC(A+A) E140 43.(C-A)(C/2)(C/4)

Where S = 11 and E = 13.

Please BYO pen.

 

There is a general store in Paruna, please check for opening hours. RHS door gets you into the store, LHS door gets you into the Tavern.
