Cockalorum Creek

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

Gazetted name -26.71533, 152.53634 Conondale National Park · National Park watercourse

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

Public land — inside Conondale National Park. 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.

Cockalorum Creek sits on Sunday Creek. The surveyed centreline of that watercourse runs 0.6 m from the recorded point, which is the whole evidence for saying it is this one. Official spatial — evidence class

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

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

The rock at the surface is pelite, mapped as Jimna Phyllite (DCj) , late devonian - early carboniferous in age. The survey describes it as: Brown to grey, polydeformed slate and phyllite with scattered metachert layers Official spatial — evidence class

Where it is

Map

Map of Cockalorum Creek and the starts of the 6 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 6 published of 8 computed

8 ways in were computed and 6 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.
