This will be a walk to a 1945 wartime airplane crash site that is of great historical interest
Its in the Tawonga-Eskdale area and has an interesting storyline associated
Tony has bought the book about this incident and so will be full of facts and figures to spice up the occasion
It just so happens there is a geocache there as well!
This site is well worth checking out
