<strong>Biodiversity</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Wielangta</strong> <strong>Forest</strong><br />

For the purposes <strong>of</strong> this study, boundaries utilise recognised land marks. Broadly speaking the<br />

eastern boundary is the coast, the northern boundary follows the Tasman Highway west from Orford<br />

to Buckland, the western boundary is defined by the Nugent Road and the southern boundary is<br />

perhaps less clear, utilising available roads and tracks so as to pick up Iles Tier in the far southwest<br />

corner. Other key landmarks include Cape Bernier, Sandspit River, the Three Thumbs, and Prossers<br />

Sugarloaf, which is the highest point at 647m above sea level.<br />
