21-Nov-2025 -- I’ve just begin my annual retreat to the Summer Hemisphere Summer (in Australia and New Zealand). I had previously visited this point in March 2000 and February 2012, but decided to visit it yet again, to get a ‘drone’s eye’ view. Surprisingly (because this point is so easy to visit), this was also the first visit in almost 13 years, since the visit by Rainer Mautz (of course :-), in November 2012.
As before, I parked alongside the paved road, 150m West of the point, and walked through vegetation to reach the point. However, I was puzzled at first by the fact that the vegetation wasn’t nearly as thick as I’d remembered from my two previous visits. I then realized that my two previous visits were in February and March - towards the end of Summer - whereas this visit was in the Spring. As in my previous visit in 2012, I noticed that the grass near the confluence point is matted down in several places. It seems that people like to visit this point, even though they don’t make a report with this project. (Perhaps there’s a geocache nearby, though I didn't see one.)
Fortunately there was a clearing in the trees next to the confluence point that allowed me to fly my drone, to get an aerial view of the point.
