This was simply a fun challenge to try to locate these historical relics of yesteryear hooliganism using only my Yugoslav navigational gut and some dodgy map I downloaded off the interweb. The haunted Ghost Hole Gold Mine and the Car Wrecks of Mt Cootha.

There are 8 locations to find on this map:

1. Ghost Hole Gold Mine
2. Marker 31 - Metal Barrel with a nearby metal rubbish bin
3. Marker 32 - Car Wreck
4. Marker 33 - Underground Concrete Water Tank with protruding metal pipe
5. Marker 34 - Car Wreck
6. Marker 35 - Car Wreck
7. Marker 36 - Car Wreck
8. Marker 37 - Metal Barrel

Great off/on track fun. Go for it!
