landmark, the suburb was first gazetted in 1967.

There is a variety of hills, one of them being
Mount Thompson.

On land owned by Boral along Pine Mountain
Road, an old quarry has filled with water.
Despite being fenced off, trespassers have
gained access and used the dam as a
swimming hole. A Brisbane City Council report
found the water had a pH level of about 3.3 and
contained traces of metals making it unsuitable
for human contact.
