Gazetted name Difficulty: Unclassified -28.16849, 153.19547 Lamington National Park · National Park range

Access verdict · Lawful, nothing to flag · weakest evidence in the chain: official spatial record

Public land — inside Lamington National Park. A published track reaches it.

Being at this point is lawful on the records below. Getting there is a separate question, answered route by route — and each route carries its own verdict and its own caveats.

What this place is A definition, then the record

A range — a line of high ground, named as one thing across what may be tens of kilometres. The register gives it a single coordinate all the same, so a way that reaches a range has reached somewhere along it and not a summit — no register records where the top of a range is, because a range does not have one.

No watercourse the register names runs within range of Beechmont Range. The layer maps far more creeks than it has ever named, so that is a gap in the record rather than dry ground.

The point falls inside Lamington National Park, designated National Park. Official spatial — evidence class

The point falls inside Gondwana Rainforests of Australia , a property inscribed on the World Heritage List. That is where the ground is, and it is not a statement about who may walk there — access is the tenure question above. Official spatial — evidence class

The rock at the surface is basalt, mapped as Hobwee Basalt (Tlh) , oligocene - miocene in age. The survey describes it as: Olivine basalt Official spatial — evidence class

The register maps one ecosystem over this ground, each with the share of it the register states.

Where it is

Map

Map of Beechmont Range and the starts of the 5 published approaches to it, over the parcels, corridors, estate and tracks around them.

Every figure the map would draw — parcel references, distances, bearings and the crossing gap — is written out in full on this page, so nothing is only visible on the map. If the map does not load, nothing has been lost.

The way reaches this place Official spatial — evidence class

Binna Burra Road passes under a metre from the recorded point. The gap crosses no contour, which is as level as this layer can evidence — not a survey saying the ground is flat.

Both gaps are small enough that the way is a way to this place, not merely one near it.

Approaches — one page each 5 published of 26 computed

26 ways in were computed and 5 are published here. The rest either reach the same ground from a few hundred metres away — the same drive and the same walk — or reach no lawful chain at all, which is only worth saying when nothing else does.
