Gazetted name -27.62583, 151.95861 ridge

Access verdict · Lawful, with caveats · weakest evidence in the chain: official spatial record

Public land. No published track reaches it — the lawful ground to it is a chain of parcels.

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 ridge — a raised line of ground running between or down from higher ground. Like a range it is long and named at one point, so reaching it means reaching somewhere along it. What the ridge is like to walk — whether it is a track, a scramble, or a drop on both sides — is not something the register says.

No watercourse the register names runs within range of Nelsons Spur. 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 outside every protected-area estate in the snapshot.

The point falls outside every World Heritage property the state maps.

The rock at the surface is basalt, mapped as Main Range Volcanics (Tm) , eocene - miocene in age. The survey describes it as: Olivine basalt Official spatial — evidence class

The remnant vegetation mapping records no ecosystem over this point. That covers remnant vegetation only, so it is what the register says about ground that has been cleared, or is water, sand or rock — not a statement that nothing grows here.

Where it is

Map

Map of Nelsons Spur 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.

Is there a track to it No published way within range

No vetted way the managing authority publishes comes within range of this point. That is a fact about the access record, not about the ground: an unmapped pad may well exist, and this site will not invent one on the strength of that.

Approaches — one page each 5 published of 70 computed

70 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.
