Geocache Description:



BERRINS PEAK


THE CRAITBUL STORY '


The story tells of the giant ancestor of the Boandik People who long ago made an oven at Mount Muirhead to cook for his wife and family. In hearing the groaning voice of the bird spirit "Bullin" warning them of the evil spirit "Tennateona", they fled to another site where they built another oven (Mount Schank). Again they were frightened off by the threat of the evil spirit and moved to "Berrin" where they again made their oven (Mount Gambier). One day, water rose and the fire went out. They dug other ovens, but each time water rose putting out the fires. This occurred four times (the Valley Lake, Blue Lake, Browne's Lake and Leg of Mutton Lake). Finally Craitbul and his family settled on the side of "Berrin's Peak."



The above Co-ordinates will not get you to Craitbuls final settlement spot but will help you locate some valuable information to guide you along. By following the above co – ordinates you will be entering one of Berrins four ovens, which means you will have to explore the other 3 ovens before you can make it to Berrins Peak.

Berrins Peak and more importantly Craitbuls final settlement spot can be found at these co-ordinates.

S 37 (D).(E+C) E 140(F+A).(A+B)

A = Oven 1 – Pump it up – Craitbuls Quest no.1 (GCTAA7)

B = Oven 2 – The Forgotten One – Craitbuls Quest no.2 (GCYJHB)

C = Oven 3 – Molten Valley – Craitbuls Quest no.3 (GCWRYH)

Oven 4 - Questions

D = Q1. When did the Planting Commence in this area (Add the month and the year then subtract the day and the month)

E = Q2. When was this location unveiled (add all the numbers in the date)

F = Q3.How may years does this location commemorate

Working out the final destination is half the battle , getting to settlement spot is another. It will be difficult and caution will be needed at all times. All legs of this cache can accommodate geo-kids but I would strongly recommend against them on the final leg.
