GCA mentioned in Qld Globe report

I’ve been spending some time lately browsing through the Queensland Globe website searching for Trig points. I found one up near Wivenhoe Dam. When I looked at the survey report I saw it mentions a typo in a Geocaching Australia log the references the mark.

GA1444 QLD State Survey Marks
Log date 07 February 2016 [Edit: fixed date]
Beardman75 (formally WMG187)

I confirmed the typo. The image is valid. I can personally vouch that he has been to that location. So have I, it’s a good walk.

See also TP13408 Northbrook

I think it’s interesting (and strange) that this was noted in the survey report under ‘related information’

Just thought I’d share

Updated.

And very cool that the official records reference us. I know that some of the ACT TP's are "checked" using the latest photos from logs which means the staff can better use their resources than checking a TP which seems in good shape from our logs.
