(visited by Bill Chambre)

13-Jul-2006 -- A relatively easy walk from the Eureka Weather Station, about 400 metres or so off the road between the Weather Station and Skull Point. A small cairn was left there by a previous visitor. I left a geocache (www.geocaching.com) at the point of confluence as I found it - about 1 metre away from the existing rock cairn.

Coordinator's Note: Visit is Incomplete due to not meeting the project's Photo Requirements
