Hi Peter and Matt
I think that is a new site however neither I (a CNM moderator for Mt Majura) nor Peter (second moderator for Mt Majura and orchid hunter) can open the distribution map of the Canberra Spider Orchid species (or any other orchid species).

Waltraud, I have sent you a message re distribution. Looks to be a tad north of a known colony.

Matt and Waltraud - it is actually the known site but I used the map to locate it and may have gone a little North.

Could you correct Peter - I can find the record of the bend location; there is your camera on the picture so it is quite easy... it was the first time we worked together as far as I remember...

OK. Now I have checked track from watch and set coordinates. I was too far North and the coordinates coincide exactly with location of https://canberra.naturemapr.org/sightings/3362690.
I'm not sure how to amend the location I gave.
