Windmill Aussie Icon
This is one of a series of great Aussie Icon hunts. Travelling
around Australia you undoubtedly see windmills: Dead ones, Rusted
ones, High ones, Spinning ones, Coloured ones, Huge ones, all seen
along the roadside, adjacent farm houses, along river banks, in
gullies, in country town parks, in museums, in fact
wherever…
This series of geocaches is designed to help you when travelling
around Australia, by breaking up the trip, and to discover a bit of
a history lesson as you seek windmills in locations with a written
history of the windmill and/or local region adjacent.

windmills. At the location listed is a sign board. On the sign is
