Joshua Morgan's grave site is accessed from from a small parking area which includes a public toilet.

 

He was one of the early surveyers working in the area when be became severely ill and died from suspected peritonitis. He was buried at the location he had died.

 

There is a commemorative plaque describing this event in more detail.

 

The grave site is access along a short walk from the parking area, where you can also park overnight. For us this would be a bit isolated.
