Damn
Freddo’s Up the Numbered Creek cache series.
Our
forefathers could be pretty boring people when they really tried.
Having named the things they found after themselves, their wives,
their children, their patrons, their monarchs, feast days and the
remaining days of the week, they then started on the look of the
natural features. Brown Hill,
Green Hill, Black
Hill, Red Hill, Mount
Lofty. If all else failed they then fell back to
numbers.
Fourth Creek flows from Marble Hill to Felixstow. There are some
very original caches along this stretch of water. The worst is of
course, White. Stop my brain is hurting.
The Kaurna people are recognized as the original inhabitants and
custodians of the Adelaide plains. Fourth Creek flows through land
occupied by the Kauwandilla local group. Extended families of
Kauwandilla followed seasonal trails along the creek. Resources of
the area included wallaby, possum, kangaroo, bandicoot, reptiles,
yabbies, bird life, river red gum, golden wattle, needlewood and
yacca.
The location of the Fourth Creek cache is in a small park being
redeveloped after massive floods in early November 2005. The Fourth
Creek Catchment Group Inc and Campbelltown council are justifiably
proud of the Fourth Creek walkway.
Australians seem to be in need of some more creative natural
feature naming. In your logs we would ask you to come up with an
improved name for the creek.
