The Lodge on the Lake competition

I was interested to see that an image I had on a post about the Attunga Point Quarry on the edge of Lake Burley Griffin was being referenced in the University of Canberra's Lodge on the Lake competition. I wish I had taken a better photo of the rockface but I was out on a walk and only had a 3MP camera with me.

Everything I know of an historical nature can be found here but I will link to the competition website which has the full details and re-post the wet and windy images I have from 2010 along with a map.... I think a new Lodge in Canberra would be very exciting. I hope they are adventurous...
