Ainsley and Nemo met up at the Glowing cube and proceeded to Googong Dam. We trekked through roads to the river and found it rather well flowing.

We backed up the road a little and took more photos of Australian native wildlife before traversing wilderness. Animal skulls did little to deter us, but more river did a pretty good job of ensuring our hash result would be no closer to us than roughly 500m. We could have made for closer, but frankly, we had more interesting nearby geology to visit.

London Bridge isn't falling down

Droving upstream a km or so to the "London Bridge" natural limestone arch. Psud was evidently with the geohashers in spirit, providing bridges of awesome. Making their way around the bridge, Ainsley and Nemo explored the depths of one cave on the southern side, then a further two caves on the northern side. Beetles were looked for, but not found at all. Neat rock formations were definitely found however and dutifully documented.

Eligibility for a Geotrash award (by removing litter from the caves) was denied by the small trivial issue of us being roughly a km south of the actual hash coordinates.

Lastly, the London Bridge shearing sheds were explored, and more Kangaroos found before venturing back homewards.

Final results, we were mother natures bitches, but she nevertheless gave us a great afternoon exploring.
