Lawful route land the public may cross — no track, you navigate it

Gazetted name -26.99085, 152.96402 Beerburrum East State Forest · State Forest watercourse

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

Public land — inside Beerburrum East State Forest. 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 watercourse — the channel a creek or river runs in, named at one coordinate along a length that may run for kilometres. Whether there is water in it is not recorded, and neither is whether its bed may be walked — that is a question about the land the channel crosses, answered on this site by the tenure chain rather than by the name.

Rose Creek sits on Beerburrum Creek. The surveyed centreline of that watercourse runs 0.0 m from the recorded point, which is the whole evidence for saying it is this one. Official spatial — evidence class

The point falls inside Beerburrum East State Forest, designated State Forest. Official spatial — evidence class

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

The rock at the surface is alluvium, mapped as Qa-QLD (Qa) , quaternary in age. The survey describes it as: Clay, silt, sand and gravel; flood-plain alluvium 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 Rose Creek and the starts of the 18 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 Measured in plan and in section

The way stops short of this place Official spatial — evidence class

The nearest published way passes 407 m from the recorded point. There is 10 m of climb or drop between the two, read at a 5.0 m contour interval. The contours give the height between them and never which way round it is, so this is a separation and not a descent to plan.

The way passes further off than anything the record can call a way to this place — or, where being above or below a feature is no answer at all, it is on the wrong level of it. Two measurements are used rather than one precisely so neither distance nor height can settle this on its own. Nothing here says how to close the remaining gap: no authority has surveyed a way across it, and a bearing off the end of a track is exactly the guess this site refuses to make.

Approaches — one page each 18 published of 86 computed

86 ways in were computed and 18 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.
