Location

Along a fence line south of the Queanbeyan Quarry, off Old Cooma Road.

Participants

1PE

Plans

Get there after a meeting in Queanbeyan during the afternoon.

Expedition

1PE

The address on the roadside mail boxes bore no relationship to the supposed address. I navigated by road turns and landmarks. The gravel track had recently been re-graded and there were sharp stones, so I drove carefully on my 'road' tyres. At the expcted kink in the road I was able to stop beside a substantial gate with the fence disappearing at right angles. There were regular signs saying QUARRY SITE KEEP OUT. So, I went no further, fixed the ActiveGeohasher poster beside the gate, took my pictures, and left.

Photos

I am not a quarryman.
So, I kept out.
