Gallery of log for NSW State Survey Marks
I was visiting the start of my new cache yesterday GC8PYJF yesterday (16th May 2020) and while checking the area I came across this very special Survey marker, probably amoungst the oldest I have ever seen with the number 355. It is located at S 34 00.119 E 151 13.400
It is known as Inscription Point and it was at this location that Captain Cook anchored his ship the Endeavour 250 years ago. On the 29th April 1770, he came ashore at a location some distance from here. Until the early 90's there was a plaque on the North East facing cliff face recognising the details of this event.
