Geocache Description:


The cache is not at the posted coordinates. This is a 2 stage multi with infomation at the first waypoint leading to the final cache.

The marker erected by Brisbane City Council commemorates the 25th anniversary of the 1974 flood in Brisbane. The marker shows the maximum level reached by the floodwaters in Kalinga Park on Tuesday 29th January 1974. The flood waters reached 8.4 metres from the creek. In January 1974 Brisbane was subjected to the worst flooding of the river since 1893. Heavy rain began to fall on Friday 25 January and by Saturday night 375mm had fallen in Brisbane. There were higher falls in the inland parts of the catchment. Vast areas of Brisbane were flooded and 14 lives were lost, 6700 homes ruined and 5000 people left homeless. The cost was almost $200 million.

At the posted coordinates you will find the marker, and you will see some numbers up top.

 

Call them ABCD then the final will be at

27 24.(D+2) C A 153 03. C (B-3) (A+4)

Final= you may require a TOTT to reach  only if very short though. It used to be up higher but now most people can reach.

Remember if its flooded forget it
