(visited by Ross Finlayson)

10-Mar-2020 -- I am spending a few days on vacation in Tasmania, Australia. I decided to make a return visit to this easy Degree Confluence Point - that I had previously visited 9 years earlier, in February 2011.

The point looked exactly how I had remembered it from my previous visit. It lies on an old road cut in a eucalyptus forest, very close to (gravel) Browns Road. Fortunately the old road cut provided a convenient place to launch my drone.

Here is a remote-controlled aerial video of this confluence point.
