Course
Officially designated as a river,[1] the Pages Creek rises on the southern slopes of the Great Dividing Range near Ben Halls Gap. The river flows generally southeast before reaching its confluence with the Hunter River at Ellerston. Pages Creek descends 842 metres (2,762 ft) over its 38 kilometres (24 mi) course.[2]
gollark: Why, what do you need a SPUDNET channel for?
gollark: Er, you need me to issue a key with perms for one.
gollark: Again, that is SPUDNET's role, though that basically just works by requiring a key rather than fancy crypto things.
gollark: No, doing that properly would require many tricky cryptography things.
gollark: The GTech trilaterator array just listens on the 128 channels most recently, er, transmitted on, as obtained by the Anavrins VLA.
